What you change is on the top line(4 letters) if I have read my ????? correctly

Not sure about the 9 letter or 10 letter highlighting though

Jogamel, your L is wrong.

Nelson, the change is what you suggested.

37a your L is wrong - think divisions in poetry
38a ae is scottish for one - put this after str (steamer) fro another scottish word - misprint is in hElm

Thanks malone and xwordfan.
(it didn't help that I had, wrongly, R as the first letter of 7A).

Thank you all. Looks like I need 23d as my answer is wrong. Comp in South Africa returning absent export. (7) I have ?AR?E?A.

South Africa isn't always abbreviated to SA - use the more exotic-looking one! The misprint's at the beginning of the clue.

Stuck on the nine cells. I am fixating on the nine starting at row 2 cell 2, but do not see the connection with the individual.

You're almost there! Start one row up and one cell further along - they're doing what the quote says, what happens to the individual.

I'm afraid I don't see it. Those 9 cells for me are:
i-----oug, assuming they are read across.
