Kari,

Thanks for this reminder. I think a salient difference between the two, worth pointing out, is that
the Service Pack (v5.03) can only be used to install XyWrite 4, whereas the Update (v5.02) can be
used to install not only XyWrite 4, but also XyWrite 3+, Nota Bene 3, and Signature -- and if you
don't already have the installation files, the Update will supply them. Am I right?

And here's a question: the Service Pack notably allows the user to install XyWrite 4 with support
for various DOS code pages, including four CPs that were made available to XyWriters for the first
time: CP437 (U.S.), CP850 (Western Europe), CP775 (Baltic languages), CP852 (Central European
languages), CP857 (Turkish), and CP866X (Cyrillic). Does the Update offer the same choice of code
pages when installing XyWrite 4?
