Tested in wine-1.1.33-404-gac85305, Word 2003 Pro.

The error message mentioned in comment #5 is gone, and Wine now opens the full 
Equation Editor in a separate window when you select Insert=>Object=>Microsoft
Equation 3.0.

The problem is, this is not the way it works in Windows (tested in XP). In
Windows, selecting the Microsoft Equation 3.0 inserts a box in the original
document, and opens the Equation Editor toolbar. You can then enter the
equations directly in the box in the document, and when you close the toolbar,
the equation is still displayed in the document. 

In Wine, because the Equation Editor opens as separate app, equations are
entered in the Equation Editor window, and they do not get inserted in the
original document.
