Re: Getting UCAC4 to show up in Guide

afm038 Oct 26 11:08 AM

I've still had no success with displaying this catalogue in Guide 9 - what format do the Z001 - Z900 files need to be in - binary data or ascii ? Do the files have any extension - for example z001.bin ?

I'm not sure what format the files exist on the DVD ?

Thanks, Andy
