Problem with Distant Eclipse Prediction

toadatrix Oct 8 6:28 AM

I recently updated to the new Guide8 which Bill posted a few days
ago. I downloaded the zip file and just pasted the new files over
the top of the old ones in my Guide8 directory. Everything seemed
to work OK until I tired to find some total solar eciples at a
specific location beyond about the year 2114. I could always do
this with Guide before, but now the program just seems to hang-up
when attempting to find a local eclipses beyond the 2114 date.

What happened to cause this? I have Guide8 setup to use the full
version of DE406 (contained in one file) following Bill's directions
on the website. That setting (setup using Alt-J) hasn't seemed to
have changed and looks like it should still be OK. I am not sure
what else can be wrong. I certainly worked fine with the previous
version of Guide8. Could something have be changed when I pasted in
the new files?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
