If you're trying to create a script or launcher to run it I have always
just used:
cd /path/to/app/top/level && wine app.exe
There are numerous programs that don't like running unless the called
from the same directory where the executable lives. This, as far as I
know, has been the case with wine quite some time. Some progs create a
registry entry that specifies the root dir for the app, but most don't.

Hi,
I'm still struggling with my vfp app in wine. This time I removed all
traces of my old deb 0.9.1 installation and did a compile from cvs.
Using wine tools I got my base setup and M$ extras installed, and
then installed my runtime app again using its own (wise) installer.
The problem persists that it doesn't find its own dependencies if I
fire it up from anything other than its top level directory. A
previous post here about another users problems suggested that the
app must be installed using the wine installer, but I can't find any
place to install applications that are not “tested” from within wine
tools.
Can someone say how I get an application to find its own parts if it
is fired up using:
Wine “C:\[pathto]application.exe”f from some other place in the system.
Hmm... well I just tested a VFP 7 app with a CVS version of Wine from
about Nov 6. It seems to work okay for me. Of course, that doesn't
help you. Does it not find any of the DLLs? What do you get from
WINEDEBUG=loaddll;wine C:\[pathto]application.exe
