Heavy Metal Pro 5 Tips

ole errors / speed up program & make it work better

Some of you may get OLE errors in your logs if you log your application, or wish to do some hacking to make it function a little better/faster. This is a pretty simple hack.

Replace (Windows XP Bottle):
/home/your_user_dir/.cxoffice/YOUR_BOTTLE_NAME/drive_c/windows/oleaut32.dll (rename this one to oleaut32.old.dll first)
with one from windows xp or an online download. I used the one from Windows XP SP2 and SP3 and both worked fine.

If you're using another bottle type, please try a copy from the appropriate bottle. I do not recommend using any bottle type other than Windows XP however.

This eliminates most of the errors that appear when you log usage of HM Pro5.
