Version 9.00 of Dexterity introduced more complex version checking for the including of Dexterity Chunks. These checks prevent a chunk file from one version extracting into a system which already has a dictionary of a different version. So, attempting to install the v9.00 chunk on top of a v8.0 dictionary will fail. The solution is to delete the OMNITOOL.DIC and/or OMNIPRCE.DIC file and re-install the v9.00 chunks. They will install successfully now.
