An interesting hypothesis. IT people don't speak English.

Ken, if you take the default paths, CdC installs its catalogs in "C:\Program Files\Ciel\cat" (32 bit Windows) or "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ciel\cat" (64 bit Windows).

unzip one of the files in that directory, right click the "stars" button in the tool bar, go to the Catalog tab, click the Add button, select the hgc (Martin's) or Hickson (mine) directory, select and open the *.prj file (I have 2 - one for the groups, one for individual galaxies), and enable it with the red button (it turns green). I'll include a new zip. This is a bit tidier. The groups are called hick1 thru hick100, and galaxies hick1a thru hick100d
