New user needs help with obscure app

Hello all. I'm a new user of CrossOver Linux. I'm on a Ubuntu 10.04 box.

I have a Windows app called cslesson. It generates lessons for the Christian Science community. I've installed it in CrossOver, and it seems to install just fine. But when I try to run the app, I get a "File not found" error. For the record, I get the same error message when I try to run it under Wine, but it works just fine using VirtualBox OSE. I much prefer the CrossOver interface, and hope to find a way to fix this problem.

The app is freeware. I've uploaded the file to http://www.box.com/s/0mkqyx5l0t3vslvvb9dy -- is there a brave soul out there who is willing to download the file (just over 2 meg) and see if there's some way to find out why it isn't working under CrossOver?

Many thanks in advance.

...the program is expecting a 16bit software environment more
or less ; it looks for a 16bit shell ; the 'file not found'
error seems to relate to the need for;

..as winetech is more focused on 32bit userland, I doubt it'll
run this app -- possibly a win3.1x instance hoisted in an i386
emulator would work ; perhaps DOSBox or VirtualBox etc could do
something like this for you...
