Hello Kieran

I did start upgrading Calc to version 3.6 before the Getting Started Guide to 
version 4.0 became priority. If you go to this link you will be able to 
download a draft of Calc Chap 1 version 3.6 to give you some idea of what is 
involved.

http://www.odfauthors.org/libreoffice/english/calc-guide/draft-lo3.6/cg-3.6-chap-01-introducing-calc/view

Just compare it to earlier versions of the Calc guide and hopefully you get the 
idea.

Regards

PeterS
