Hi Hamish, Fergus, Ken, Patrick, Carlos, Anders,

Sorry to be so late responding; wrong time zone...
I found the aforementioned "offline browser mode", and the drop-down
 "Download Manager" button, but cannot get any activity.   The download
opens the links and allows me to select for download but the copy/download
window just opens and stops dead. The "offline browser mode" just allows
me to browse cached information.
I can open each page in turn and copy each page in turn, but it is far too
slow and the worst part is that, because of cross-referencing  I'm not sure
if I have collected them all.

Anyway, I'll keep trying.  Thanks for your attempts.
Regards,
Colin
