The information in this article applies to:
 
 - Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a, 2.0, 2.0a,
   2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c
 - Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.0 and 3.1

In Word for Windows, if you open and then apply formatting to a Text Only
file, you cannot save the file again in Text Only file format with the same
filename. This feature is by design in all versions of Word through 2.0c.
 
After you apply formatting to a file that you opened in Text Only
format, you must give the file a different filename if you want to
save it again in Text Only file format.
 
This feature is under review and will be considered for inclusion in a
future release.
