Error message returned when running install.

In a terminal, I try to run an install program "swb32c100.exe"
ie:

[pat at pat .wine]swb32v100.exe
I see a progress window (horizonal progress bar) for a split second, then it
goes away and I get an error message.
(see attached)

Someone posted the following response:

this is a known (and annoying) bug in wine. Usually you could try a
'cabextract' on the executable, and the .msi file comes usually out
(extracted), but here no msi file comes.
