I asked about your distro because there is a known problem with Ubuntu 10.10 that breaks many apps in Wine, including Office. 
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24193 

It wasn't present in the original 10.04, but they may have backported the change. Try upgrading to Wine 1.3.4, which had a workaround added.

The version of Office can matter. You said you were using the enterprise edition; is it English? There have been times in the past when the German and Spanish versions in particular have had bugs that did not affect the English version.
