Install in the regular way, preferably on a new bottle starting from the xp template. I usually copy the whole setup directory to a local directory in order not to use the install CD. Sometimes, the main install screen hides some dialog that will appear. If this happens, minimize and maximize all windows (using GNOME button at the left-bottom corner) until you can see the dialog. The installer will hang in the last step, but the application is already installed. Then proceed as usual.
To start the application, set the bottle as the default one and create a link with the following command: /opt/cxoffice/bin/wine /home/me/.cxoffice/thebottle/drive_c/BC5/BIN/bcw.exe
It takes some time to start, after showing the main frame window. It seems it's something about the startup scripts.
