I would assume that the last entry, being the newest, would have all the steps listed that are currently needed. Maby its just me and, I am really not tyring to cause a hassle, maby I am reading it wrong. It seems to me that you need to piece together what you need be applying past steps and seeing what has changed. I guess what I am looking for is a : 1) xxxxxx 2) xxxxxx 3) xxxxxx type of thing. Again, thats what confused me. Maby others can see it fine, but it lost me.
