Have a look at:
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=31
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=86
(.NET seem to be the main thing messing up recent versions...) (There
is also quite a bit of posts on the form / wine-users, use search...)

.NET apps should be written to be runnable under Mono.... (The older
.NET versions actually seem to have some hope:

) See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mono_%28software%29

"Unmanaged" Visual Studio apps work... .NET (Unfortuanatly, I thing
Visual C++ is the only app with an unmanaged option) stuff not...
(.NET is huge and require a massive part of Windows to run...) Proper
portable .NET apps should be runnable under Mono, which tries to be
compliant to the .NET specs... (When they start mixing in non-.NET
code, Wine is needed...)
