Sorry, there is no such thing as a greyed out file in RISC OS. So, can
you describe exactly what you were seeing?

OK, but of course the help file is the least important aspect of the
application. If upgrading the help file has not worked chances are
that the rest has not worked either. Did you follow the advice to
first DELETE your existing copy of !GPDriver2 and then drag in the new
version from the zip file? That is the only reliable way to upgrade.

There should not be any difference.
