I have Ubuntu 9.04 with Wine 1.0.1
I installed Google Adwords Editor7.6.1 and got Visual C++ Runtime Error R6034
I used Winetricks to install vcrun2005 and now Adwords Editor runs well. (vrun2008 did not work).

Perfect. I just got it working thanks to your instructions.

The latest version that is shown to work on the Wine site is 6.5. This is version 7 and still seems to work well.

Thanks

@MarbleHost.com: Actually the 120 rows limitation is not due to Adwords Editor or WINE – it’s a limitation of VMware, which doesn’t let you copy/paste more than 64KB into or out of a guest OS. I’m guessing that your copy of Excel is running in a VMware guest here, as that’s how I ran into this. See http://communities.vmware.com/thread/105357

One workaround is to copy/paste via a text editor in Windows and Linux sharing same file via Samba (but make sure it’s something that doesn’t force Unicode, just ASCII – gVim is what I use). Or you could buy Crossover Office and install Excel on top of that.

It could be an Adwords Editor problem. I’ve known it to seize up for a while on Windows when pasting large amounts of data. But 120 rows doesn’t seem like much.

Hello,

I have got wine 0.9.54 and google adwords editor 5.0.1 running everything seems to work fine no errors.

The only issue is when I want to add keyword I cannot copy more then 120 lines of text from an excel sheet to the campaign. If I copy more than that nothing happens. But when I tried to paste into a text file its working. But not in the application emulated on wine.

Any Suggestion
