Hello,

I think this topic was adressed some time ago, but I couldn't find the
mail:

In which files have I to delete the original entry for comet
73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann? Similar candidates are 173P/Mueller
= P/2005 T1, 171P/Spahr = P/1998 W1 and 161P = P/Hartley-IRAS.

For 73P and its fragments I manually created a text file with elements
from Nakano Notes (http://www.oaa.gr.jp/~oaacs/nk.htm) which I add
to Guide by |Extras| |Add MPC comets/asteroids| |Add MPC
asteroids/comets|. Then I select the file I created by myself. But when
I view the area of 73P there is still one entry of P/Schwassmann-
Wachmann 3 (73P) which is nearly 5 deg off.

A note to Bill: would it be possible to display the source (like "NK
1299" or "MPC 55524") of the elements in "More info"?

Can anybody help?

Clear skies
Bernd
