Hi Lawrence,

I actually have the full set of USNO A2 installed on my harddisk. I
really want to GOTO to a particular star and Bill has just answered
how to do this in his e-mail to my question. This version of
the "name" I have not tried yet.

Thanks anyway that you took the time to answer.

Best regards and Happy New Year,

Josch Hambsch
