First download wine from winehq.org and rpm -i it.
Are planning to run windows apps from a windows partition or from linux itself?
In the first case, mount the windows partition, cd to the directory where the exe is located and do wine appname.exe.
You can find how to use variety of windows apps with wine on http://www.frankscorner.org/wine/ and on http://appdb.winehq.org
Hope you may find the links useful, Hrushikesh Tilak
