BTW, it's even worse than that.

In order to install the patch, you first have to download & install Service 
Pack 2b.

In order to install Service Pack 2b, you first have to download & install 
Service Pack 1.

Yet another reason to prefer Word Perfect over Word:  Corel combines the 
old service packs into the new one, so you only have to download & install 
the latest.  Unfortunately, these days if you need to share files with 
anyone else, you can't get by without using Monopolysoft.
