I will try to do the install as you described it, using step 3 and then
8. It will be best for me to have the software here with me, as from
time to time I will want to create an updated version. -- If I have
difficulty with the install process, I'll let you know and perhaps we
can work it out at that time using IM, as you have suggested. Many
thanks.
