Thanks for all of the replies.
I tried the suggestion of BoldEnglishman and copied into my DOOM folder.
If I do this then 2002ado will work, and replaces the 3 episodes in DOOM. I do not have Ultimate Doom
so there are only the 3 episodes.
The Licensed to Spell Doom, however, under the same conditions still fires up the default doom.wad.
It would appear then that I will have to look out for Ultimate Doom if I want to play these wads.

I'm pretty sure that you can get a free patch to upgrade Doom to Ultimate Doom.

Oh, BTW the only thing of significance added to the Ultimate Doom was the fouth episode. I don't even think there were any new textures. If that is the case, you should be able to get an Ultimate Doom WAD to work with a non-ultimate IWAD. But, like I said, I'm sure the patch is free.

The orange sky (SKY4). That's about it.

Thanks again for all of the advice.
I downloaded the patch and upgraded to ultimate Doom and now the 2002ado.wad and 007ltsd.wad
work fine.
