Hi Lawrence,


In the directory where Guide is installed, there is a file named comets.dat.
Check that there is a line beginning with "2003 UB313" and with the letter
"A" in column 153. If there is no such a line, probably the orbital elements
were not imported (or imported not correctly) into Guide's database. Try
again (or add the elements manually -- read the note at the end of the list
in that file).
If there is, did you type the name of the asteroid exactly as it is in
comets.dat (with a space) ?
