How do I install MS Visio 2010, updates and the Compatibility Pack on PlayOnLinux? There is a script in POL for Visio 2010 initial install, but not for the updates and the Visio Compatibility Pack so it would be good to have end-to-end directions.

Through trial and error, I can get up to installing the Visio Compatibility Pack, which opens files in Microsoft Visio 2010 that were created in the newer Visio drawing file format. I did this by changing the Wine Windows version to Win 7. I could not get the Visio Compatibility Pack to work.

When opening a vsdx file, it fails with the error message: 

An error (1502) has occurred during the action Open File. Fine not found.

I am not sure if the issue is with the Visio Compatibility Pack install or with some setting changes I made somewhere earlier during trial and error.

It looks like the Viseo 2010 Compatibility Pack is not working through Wine - the compatibility report on the Crossover website (a product based on Wine) indicate that it will install but it won't run.

Since Crossover is geared toward better MS Office compatibility over regular Wine, and it won't run on Crossover, I'm certain it will be the same case with Wine itself.
