Re: [guide-user] Having trouble entering Double Star name

G'day Bill,

Thanks for your help, so far.
The latest WDS is working OK

One thing still a problem. I 34, LDS 411, B 379, DAW 213, as
a few that I know of, will not be found in the 'Goto Object
name'. "Not a valid object", but if I enter the RA/DEC they
will be displayed.
MAD 6 is still not displayable. It is in the WDS catalog.

I've tried different spaces in the names, but still wont
work.

Regards
Vincent
