ROX-file: "Set Run Action" for filetype to be opened by MSWin program


I want to set csv files to open in a windows program thru Wine when I click on any csv file.

I use ROX 2.10 filemgr and have Set run action as:
' wine "/home/scott/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/dbEdit/dbedit.exe" "z:$@" '

This causes the error of:
Z:\home\name\Documents\ZipCodes.csv\ZipCodes.csv

I thus far am unable to correct the double ZipCodes.csv, which doesn't exist.

Placing either slash following Z: or capitalizimg the Z makes no difference in the error

Also, I had tried to Set run action as:
' wine "/home/scott/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/dbEdit/dbedit.exe" "$@" '

which causes the error of:
Z:\ZipCodes.csv, which also doesn't exist at location

Soes anyone know the proper syntax to be used to correct the error?

Obviously the best fix would be find a simple Linux database program to use, but I like the simplicity of the dbedit program.

Maybe sqlite3 would do what you want(?).
