Graham,

if you have 4NT you can use the following batch file to do the
installation. Obviously you should change the directories at the top
of the file to suit your setup. Just download the latest org-xxx.zip
and then do org_update xxx and emacs will use the latest org-mode. I
have

(setq load-path
      (cons "~/.emacs.d/elisp" load-path))

in my .emacs so that emacs knows to look there for addon packages. I
also have an environment variable INFOPATH set to include
~/.elisp.d/info before the standard emacs info directory, so that info
in emacs picks up the documentation for the latest version.

HTH, Tony
