This article was previously published under Q126135 SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to save a file as text only from Lotus 123 for Windows
version 4.0 or 5.0 under Windows NT, the following error appears:
Unable to access output device
This error also occurs when you print from Lotus 123 for MS-DOS using the
backslash key (/) instead of using the Windows menus to print.
CAUSE
Lotus 123 exports text and prints through a the WINGEN.DRV driver. This
driver was developed by Lotus to work with Windows and does not work with
Windows NT.
RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, print to file using the Generic Text Only
driver included in Windows NT 3.51 or 4.00.
