If Guide-9 does not have ASCOM support, then sadly it is of no relevance
to me. I have to have a program that speaks to the rest of the world -
so that I can use other programs with the telescope. Currently I only
use Guide-8 for identifying asteroids - and then use another (ASCOM
compatible) program to drive to the coords.

Please Bill - do the decent thing......
