Thanks very much for this suggestion. I tried it and the receipt does not match. The receipt still has the old flight even though the new flight shows on the reservation. The changed flight is operated by Aer Lingus so that worries me. I am not sure how many hours I can devote to sitting on hold today. I am afraid they will try to charge me a change fee if I cannot get it done within 24 hours of the original booking (though I think that would be very unfair and I would dispute it). Anyway, it is better to realize I have a problem now. Thanks again.
