There are also other programs out there based on wine which will be 
simpler to use and install.  Look at SuSE Desktop, and see the packages 
they use for that.  I think they call it something different now, but go 
to www.suse.com and click on home user.  Then you'll see the three 
links, Personal, Professional, and their other offering which is an add 
on for windows compatibility.  They use two Wine based products which 
you can probably find and install for Fedora.  Neither of which I 
believe are free however.
