wine users - Mar 2005 - Can't get things running

I'm new to wine, and I don't seem to be able to get any of my apps 
running.  I configured Wine on Fedora Core 3 with Winetools.  Wine is 
working, I can run the builtin Win apps, and my Win installers all run 
but post install I'm not making much progress.  My first app (Ckpp.exe), 
which appeared to install fine pops up a dialog box saying:

    DDE requires ddeml.dll

I did a locate ddeml.dll, and got:  /usr/lib/wine/ddeml.dll.so .  I'm 
assuming that ddeml.dll.so is trying to emulate the functionality of 
ddeml.dll, but is somehow not handling my apps requests properly - is 
that right?

My other app (KOPS.exe), which also appeared to install fine, gets the 
following errors:

    fixme:actctx:CreateActCtxW stub!
    err:heap:HEAP_GetPtr Invalid heap (nil)!
    err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 36 bytes in thread 0009 eip 
0c031ff1 esp 777c0fdc stack 0x777c000-0x778c000

I have no idea what that means...  But, if anyone does - is there anyway 
to get either of these apps running in Wine?  Thanks in advance,

Hi Dunc,

I think you're using Wine in an incorrect way.  You
need to use REAL DLLs ... not the Wine DLL
equivalents.  You should read up on Wine a bit more
regarding how it is configured:
http://www.winehq.com/site/docs/wine-user/config-wine-main

Also, you should see if your apps are listed in the
database.  If they are, you can see what people did to
get them working, or if they had no luck making them
work:
