[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1855652, member: 83420"] I think Bob nailed it, so cudos To him. To amplify, Merge simply means that new files will be added. Unaltered files will remain. New versions or updated files of those already present will be replaced. Replace, replaces those unaltered files already present and adds the new updated or upgraded version. Merge takes a less time, but if you are in any doubt, Use Replace. Ian [/QUOTE]
