SUMMARY

The Microsoft Mail Notifier window has two option buttons: "Read Now" and "Read Later." If you select the Read Later option while in a Microsoft Works version 2.00 Help file, a system crash occurs. If you are using MultiFinder, the error message "Works has unexpectedly quit" is generated.

This problem occurs because Works cannot correctly handle the transition from a Mail Notifier window back to the Works Help file window.

To avoid this problem, select the Read Now option or turn off the Notifier window.
