Hi Steve

This is my only problem with Guide now. I use Guide for all planetarium work
eg., comet and asteroid locations, but it will not communicate via ASCOM so I
have to clumsily write RA and Dec from Guide (eg comet data) into Maxim to say
GOTO. I do have the option of configuring Carte du Ciel into my system
because it is ASCOM, but I am reluctant to start learning yet another piece of
software. That program would enable me to do everything that I wish to do.
Mmm... just maybe!

regards

Lawrence Harris
