Got it to work! :-D
The solution is to check "Enable Virtual Desktop" in the Wine Configuration. I can open the file. Problem is that my keyboard doesn't work in that mode. But if the file is opened one time, it works without virtual desktop via the "recently opened files" menu.
My printer doesn't work in wine, that's the next thing I'll have to fix.
