Bastien,

Thanks but that is roughly what I "think" I was doing and didn't work.

I have a directory called "emacsaddins" with a subdirectory called
"Orgmode".

Together with lines in .emacs to load and require orgmode from that
directory.

In the past I have just overwritten the contents of the "Orgmode" directory
with the latest release and that has then been the version then loaded in
Emacs.

On this occasion I over wrote the contents of the orgmode directory with
5.13i, but Emacs still loaded 4.67. hence my question about updating because
what I was doing in the past didn't work. Which I assumed was because
OrgMode was part of Emacs now.

Having said that the lines in my .emac is slightly different.

(add-to-list 'load-path "C:\\Program Files\\EmacAddIns\\org-mode")
 (require 'org)

but this seemed to work in the past

I'm afraid I don't know how to use the script you have attached :-(

Sorry I'm being so dim
