I'm afraid this app does not have a good history of being compatible with Wine: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=5592. Practically speaking, chances of it getting to work in Wine are low - your best bet to make it work would be to install a Windows inside Virtualbox (https://www.virtualbox.org) and use it from there.

Can you help with this problem?
