I've got a curious documentation problem.  We have two VMS 4.0 documentation
sets that were not upgraded from 4.0 to 4.2.  Now that DEC has released
VMS 4.4, it has withdrawn the 4.0 to 4.2 documentation upgrade kit and sell
only a 4.2 to 4.4 upgrade kit.

Local DEC sales representatives have been unable to answer the following
questions:    Can I apply the 4.2 to 4.4 upgrade to a 4.0 set and obtain
an accurate documentation set, or is the nonexistent 4.0 to 4.2 upgrade
essential for accuracy?   If the 4.0 to 4.2 is needed, how can I obtain
it since DEC no longer sells it?

Any clues or suggestions gratefully welcomed.   I really hate the idea of
having to trash complete doc sets because of premature obsolesence.
