Hi Ray ,
I use Starry Night, but i have also used stellarium and find it is just as good ( plus its free

). I have a good set of star charts aswell that I downloaded from here
http://www.cloudynights.com/item.php?item_id=1052 , printed them and had them laminated.
There is also a much more detailed set of star charts here
http://www.uv.es/jrtorres/ , but you might want to buy a ream of paper and make sure your ink cartridges are full if you want to print this one.
