yeah... you have to configure Wine so it has a clue how to handle the file type.  If you install software that handles that file type it usually does it for you, but if there is no installer, you might have to manually set it up in the registry.

How to do that manually isn't super simple to explain when I have no idea what type of program or file types you are using.  You can probably do some web searching and find direction on how to make those registry entries.

Vitamin deserves the credit for this but there is an entry in the FAQ at:

http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-91bf3f0a8ccbfab8dee96f82fae2f1a489e0d243

That describes how to do this. As a caution, please backup your registry before hacking it.
