Hi, Thank you all for your help - "Download Object" was the fundamental thing I had missed.
I had kind of hoped that you would just point me to the nice new user instruction page on the Wiki that I had not spotted. I'll have a look at improving it, but it is not an insignificant job. How about if we divide the basic documentation into chunks (like a mapping party, but not as good for you), and different people volunteer to update a different aspect to bring it up to date in terms of software, and "custom and practice"? I am happy to co-ordinate, but will struggle to do it all. I think this would be a big help in encouraging wider participation in the project. Could even be a "Project of the Week"? Regards Graham.
