SYMPTOMS
========

When you are using the Quick View feature of Windows 95 to view a file created
with a version of Lotus 1-2-3 prior to version 3.0, the file does not appear
correctly. In particular, cells containing times may not appear correctly or may
not appear at all.

CAUSE
=====

Versions of Lotus 1-2-3 prior to version 3.0 are not supported by Quick View.

RESOLUTION
==========

To use Quick View to view Lotus 1-2-3 files, upgrade to Lotus 1-2-3 version 3.0
or later. To view files created with a version of Lotus 1-2-3 prior to version
3.0, you must use the version of Lotus 1-2-3 that was used to create the file or
some other application that can read Lotus 1-2-3 files.
