To do this, open a terminal window, navigate to the folder where your application is, and run it by typing wine (program).exe. Running wine in this fashion will also let you see Wine's debugging log. This may not be the friendliest way to use Wine, but at the moment it is the most effective, and it's how wine developers usually do it.

What you need to do is this in terminal

cd <location of executable you want to run>
wine <name of executable>.exe (yes that is dot exe without the space)

You should get a bunch of output to the screen and your program should
run.  Also, please look in the applications database (AppDb) and see if
anyone has been successful in running your particular executable and if
any workarounds are needed to do so.

This means that wine could not find the executable.  Please run it from
the directory the program was installed into.
