SYMPTOMS
========
When you are running Microsoft Word 2.x for Windows, you cannot load files using
a universal naming convention (UNC) path specification.
CAUSE
=====
This problem occurs when you are using the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks
as one of the network clients in Windows 95. Word 2.x for Windows recognizes
that NetWare is present and translates the UNC names to the Novell NetWare
naming convention, which is incompatible with the Windows 95 method of network
communications, the server message block (SMB) data structure.
RESOLUTION
==========
To correct this problem, either update Word for Windows to version 6.0, or
remove the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks component.
