================================================================ ==

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for Windows, version 3.11n on the following platforms: MS-DOS ——————————————————————————-

= SYMPTOMS =

Starting Network Word version 3.11n by typing WORD/L to load the previous file on a Novell Network may result in a system hang. Word/L will work if the MW.INI file is first deleted or if a file was not loaded during the previous session; however, the /L parameter is used to load the previous file. Because this information is stored in the .INI file, the purpose of the /L parameter is defeated.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Word version 3.11n. This problem was corrected in Word version 4.0 and all subsequent releases.
