    Hi there.

    I really need your help this time. I need to install a trading program that called Metatrader4. Its only doable trough wine. Im allready install wine and winetools (ver. 9.***) trough add/remove programs, and I already downloaded the metatrader setup program. And found a tutorial posted in other forum:

    I really appreciate for your help.

    Thank U

    Ok guys,... finally I sorted it out. Some guys at fedoraforums.org helped me finding solution for this mess (thank u very much quik69 & JN4OldSchool).

    Its simple,... just download MFC42.DLL from www.dlldump.com and copy it to your /home/user/.wine/drive_c/windows/system and system32 directories.

    Voila!!! And everything solved.

    Hi, I've installed wine through sudo yum
    and have successfully installed a metatrader program by simple double clicking the setup program I've placed at the wine directory, but when I try to start the program, nothing happened, I browsed to drive_c\Program Files\Metatrader4\terminal.exe and right click it and choose open with wine, but nothing happened, what could possibly went wrong? thanks a bunch ^^

    Does anyone know if there's an app like metatrader but for stocks instead of forex? i'm not familiar with PC software (long time Mac user) enough to know a good stock analysis/trading program that will run on the A1 via Wine. Any advice is much appreciated.
