Harold:  Thanks! for your assistance.  I hope you're not related to the 
infamous "Fuchs" of the past.  But then no one can be blamed for his ancestors. 
 I trust all is well in bonny England?  It will be a long time before I may 
travel there given the dollar vs Pound/Euro relationship provoked by our 
spendthrift, warmongering, and economics dunce of a President!   Last question: 
does 2.4 supplant 2.0 or do both remain in my harddisk?  If both remain, 
shouldn't I remove 2.0?  Thanks for your anticipated response.  Best regards,

You need to download the complete new version (2.4) from <www.openoffice.org>. 
It's completely free, both to download and to use. You'll also find 
installation instructions on the web site. You don't need to uninstall 2.0 but 
you do need to make sure none of the components, including the Quickstarter, is 
running when you install the new version. Unfortunately there is no "upgrade" 
as such. OpenOffice exists in too many flavours (different Operating Systems, 
different languages etc.) for this to be practicable.
