Re: [guide-user] Re: Only few asteroids without use of MPCORB

Hi Bill,

Here is my contribution to this problem:

- Quick info is OK.
"Currently visible asteroids to magnitude 11" gives me presently 10 asteoroids, from (1) Ceres to (354) Eleonora.
If I click on anyone of these ten, Guide goes to the right one, with "X" (cross), number and name on the center of the screen. If I click on "X", the infow window is OK, and the "more info" window also.

- Table of current asteroids
Through this way also, all is OK. I can choose the magnitude limit, and Guide shows a table with as asteroids as the magnitude limit is down. If i click on any, all is OK as above.

- Extra/Use MPCORB is grayed out

- Goto/Asteroid shows me the usual small window, but if I write, say, ""Ceres, or "1", or any other name or number, Guide tells me: "not an asteroid".

I use the 29 May 2006 version, but, as most of my files are customized, I have downloaded and replaced (as I do for each update) only the files that have been created of modified after the release of the previous version.

Hope this might be helping you.

Bertrand
