Modeling a vase

Hi, I am new to blender and I have been trying to complete one of the tutorials on modeling a vase. However, I have a small problem. The tutorial says that sub surface modeling is used. On my version of blender I do not see any button labeled “sub surface” on the buttons window or any other button that is closest to that name. My version of blender is 2.42 for windows. I believe that I was able to get only to step #4 and then had trouble locating the sub surface button. Does anyone out there know why this is or how I get around this problem? The tutorial is the first one on this page under modeling > beginner: http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Modeling.245.0.html

It is under ‘modifiers’, click ‘add modifier’ and select subsurf from the pull down meny while the target object is selected…

That tutorial link does not work for me BTW

Thanks a lot for the help I appreciate it
