You can't. Lotus 3.0 wants to run in protected mode and Windows/386 only gives you a real mode virtual machine. I've seen reports of agreements among the various vendors of DOS extenders to come up with a way to allow their stuff to cohabit, but I haven't seen any results yet. In the meantime, If you want Lotus in a window you'll either have to drop back to 2.2, run 3.0 under OS/2, or wait for the Unix version. -- John R.
