You can't.  Lotus 3.0 wants to run in protected mode and Windows/386 only
gives you a real mode virtual machine.  I've seen reports of agreements among
the various vendors of DOS extenders to come up with a way to allow their
stuff to cohabit, but I haven't seen any results yet.

In the meantime, If you want Lotus in a window you'll either have to drop
back to 2.2, run 3.0 under OS/2, or wait for the Unix version.
