Thanks for your help, shaman. Problem solved!

I moved the new dictionary from the Kindle's main "documents" folder into the "dictionaries" subfolder.

Then I went back to.....

Settings > Device Options > Language and Dictionaries > Dictionaries

The New Oxford American Dictionary still showed by default. But when I tapped on it, a new window opened up, displaying both dictionaries — the old and the new — along with the option to choose a new default.

Collins is now my default, and all is well!

Again, thanks for your input.
