NOTE: The files on dll-files do NOT always work. For isntance Savihost
required a dll. I downlaoaded a copy and tried to use it but it didn't
work. I took a copy from a win XP box and it did work.
I talked to some of the Wine guys about this and they said the dll's I
was looking for were too big and complicated ot be part of Wine 1.0.
However M$ makes a number of them available through their site. Here's
part of the response and a link:
You can also download the necessary version from Microsoft. See

"Vcredist.exe installs the latest run-time components for Visual C++
applications"
or

"Redistributing Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Applications"
I beleive that this package does indeed install under Wine so you can
get some good stuff there, assuming you are licensed to do so. (I.e. -
have a legal Windows license somewhere...)
Cheers,
Mark
