Hi All,

The is major as it is messing the crap out of my file system.

I am using Lotus Word Pro N9.8.0208.1200.  When I create a symbolic link on my
desktop to a document and use the link to open the document, saving the file
overwrites the link with the actual document.  This problem can not be
reproduced with Notepad.exe

To reproduce:

1) open word pro and create a document.  Save the document to anywhere but
~/Desktop.  For instance ~/eraseme.lwp

2) in your Desktop, create a symbolic link to the document you just created.
For instance   ln -s ~/eraseme.lwp ~/Desktop/.

3) open the new link on your desktop

4) make a change to the document and save it back.  Exit the document.

5) Check the link on you desktop.  It will be replaced with the actual
document.  And now you have two document of the same name with different
revisions in different directories.

I would really appreciate it if you would fix this asap!

Many thanks,
-T
