Hello Curtis,

Thank you very much for your response. As I learned from a friend on another 
list,

1. Even though the description of the second option made it look to me as if 
it might not apply to my Win XP Home system, that's misleading, and that 
download would actually be appropriate to my system as well as the one 
mentioned.

2. Although the two options can't be selected with check boxes and 
downloaded together, they can be selected and downloaded one at a time, if 
you do the first and then launch the update function a second time, this 
time going for the second option, which is the only one remaining.

Thank you again for your encouragement.
