*-Do I have to have the morphs or injections to even do something this simple?

I think the answer is yes, I didn't want to be patronizing, it's just not my nature, but sometimes i don't know how much experience people have. I know a lot of people had difficulties with V4.2 at the beginning due to installationproblems, when V4.0 or V4.1 was already installed.
Pakled? I don't if you're still here, but I had the impression this was your first try with V4.2, at least you said you didn't had V4.0 or V4.1 So you couldn't had those installationproblems!
V4.0 and V4.1 came with all the morphs installed , but  with the release of V4.2 DAZ came with the brilliant (sic) idea to have the morphs separated from the body (ouch, that sounds painfull!) just like V3 had. I doesn't harm to unInstall and reïnstall the whole package  again like pjz99 said,but you need the base morphs to make some expressions.

Best regards,

Bopper.
