Hi Ray

Try it with the Astronomical Data Services of the USNO Astronomical Applications
Department at:
http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/
There you can create Tables for :
- Complete Sun and Moon Data for One Day
- Table of Sunrise/Sunset, Moonrise/Moonset, or Twilight Times for an Entire Year
- Rise/Set/Transit Times for Major Solar System Objects and Bright Stars
includes altitude of object at transit and azimuth of object at rise and set
- Duration of Daylight/Darkness Table for One Year
- Dates of Primary Phases of the Moon
- Fraction of the Moon Illuminated
- What the Moon Looks Like Today

One can find some more interesting data at the USNO Astronomical Almanac Online
pages at:

Clear skies
Wolfgang
