    Since I upgraded to Win95,all my files within Word for Windows V2 seem
    to be appearing as rubbish when I open them,or even when I try to
    create a new file.
    
     They have the same appearance as you might get by opening a binary file by
     mistake,or a loss of formatting.
    
    Any known problems with this?

               -< not a virus,but clicking"Draft" improves it! >-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    It isn't a virus-I ran SWEEP on it.
    
    I notice when I click on the "Draft" option,that the document appears
    in English ok,but the formatting isn't what it was before the upgrade
    ie Bold,Title boxes etc are different.....
