I would find it very odd if Ford wasn't part of this and I suspect your chances of running these applications under WINE to be low. On top of this they tend to be rather badly written so if they did run you'd probably have a larger issues getting the app to work stably.

I would disagree, if it is finding the stuff above. It's not going for
you, and the loaddll trace showed no errors beyond a large number of
native dlls. Is that a 16-bit app? Your chances spiral accordingly.
Is there some copy protection or Something?
It loads a lot of stuff, like it's going to save the world or something.
Did an install complete, or are you running from a CD? I notice a FORD
directory on C: and on F:

Did you adress the f: drive? Then why should the software ever look
there?
you can try wine f:\\setup.exe (or whatever)

Read the help files or try the FORD support. You may need m$ie or some
other kamikaze app. Remove or rename c:\FORD & run 'f:\\setup.exe' from
the xterm. In my experience, such software goes in a straight line and
if it runs into a problem, stops. No development time - the software is
an afterthought. Ford may help you debug it.
