Try to run it in console to see what messages it produces :

$ cd exefilelocation
$ wine QBW32.exe

It might be that is missing some dll's

Check the appdb in winehq.

I would be amazed if you got it to work, QuickBooks is heavily
dependant on IE libraries.

I run windows in virtualbox for quickbooks and other intuit sofware.

No problem. I'm switching over to GNUCash for FY2008 and beyond but I'm just finishing up FY2007 so it would be easier than dual booting all the time.

I have been using GNUCash for about 3 1/2 months now and it works just fine for my small business needs!
