Hi folks,

I'm an old Guide user who's been away from the hobby for about five years. I recently bought a second hand ETX 105, and have thus found renewed interest in battling the poor weather to do some astronomy.

Now, Guide was always my favourite astro program, and it was only natural to dig out my latest installation to pick it up where I left off.

I just copied the old installation onto my current computer, pulled down the latest fixes from /new.htm and started up.

All worked like a charm, but for some funny reason, some asteroids are displayed twice, and with several minutes of arc's separation.

The duplicates (ie. those NOT configurable through the Asteroid options-dialog) are displayed like "(89) Julia".

Now, my primary observering interest when I quit observing 5 years ago, was indeed asteroids, so I have a hunch these duplicates may come from a user-defined file.

If so, where could this file possibly be, in order for Guide to recognize, or is there another likely explanation for the duplicates?

Thanks for any info offered! It's amazing how much is purged from one's memory in just five years, but it is all coming back to me. Or much of it anyway ;)

Best Regards,

Arild Moland
