Hi Andrew,

thanks again. appreciate the effort. what I was looking for was a list of objects that can be viewed for a particular date/time from a location, and their magnitudes. that way, I can draw up a list of objects for an observing session for a night.

is it possible to add the alt/az colums next to the objects, and by refreshing, it recalculates co-ordinates of all the objects relative to current LST rather than choosing one at a time.

your formulae look quite complex, but I'll play around with it a bit as well.

is it possible to combine objects from the major catalogs and filter them between the Dec ranges -90 to +30 for our hemisphere if I'm correct.
