OK, I'll bite: what specifically is the format of the documents on the
CD? BTW: if it is Gospelink 2001 that you are refering to & want to run
it with Wine, have a look at this:

http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=11964

So, I'd recommend reading up on VirtualBox, install VB, install Win2K or
WinXP in VB and run your program using that.
