Semi-educated guess time: WINE might work -- it is a utility which can
run some Windows programmes in Ubuntu.  There's also a compatability
list at www.winehq.org ==> works, does't work, sort of works.

Another options would be to install a virtual machine -- I prefer 
Oracle's VirtualBox over the option in Ubuntu Software (Centre) and 
create a Virtual Windows.
