Using the NGC list.
After you download the list of 111 NGC objects you need to click on data, filter, and autofilter. You can then choose objects by const, type, Vmag, dec, month etc To remove the filter click data, filter, show all.
At the moment the Sun is at RA 11 so you can't see objects in that area unless they are near the south celestial pole. If you choose month, custom, is greater than or equal to 4 you will get a list of objects visible before midnight. Objects north of dec +55 have a blank in the month column as they are not visible for most of us. If you live in northern Australia you need to put numbers in some of the blanks.
