Me too. But I meanwhile got a do-it-myself-fix.

My homemade ephemeris program ("Comet Guru", up to now German menus) exports
UOV-files with date-labels. These can be loaded into Guide to display
labelled finder charts for comets. I attach one for demonstration.

The software also can load soft02cm.txt to show the most recent comet
orbits. It is running under DOS.

The UOV-export feature was made possible by Bill, who told me the byte
structure of the UOV format within 12 hours after asking. Wonder if there
are many software
companies that are this helpful.
