Hi Bill and Bertrand,

My results are the same as Bertrand's, except that Goto|Object
name... and Goto|Asteroid... both work fine with either an asteroid
name or number. I'm also using the 29 May 2006 version, but I take
the "replace all files" option" because it has always retained my
customized files (toolbar.dat, *.mar files, etc.) without changing
them. As insurance, I do have them backed up anyway.
