   I've just blown the dust off my copy of the guide dated 16th April 2019    
   and that's also incorrect. A lot's changed over the last 12 months, so it    
   looks as though as I'm going to have to refresh things. Thanks for    
   bringing this to my attention.

   Yes, good idea, I'll have a look at that too.

   Hmmmmm, can't find that particular help topic ??

   Yes, that's how it works here.
