What magnitude of stars are you talking about? The HD catalog has spectral classes.
CdC lists stars in the "object list". You need to enable stars in "Setup → Chart, Coordinates → Object filter". I got over 900 in a 5 deg field around tonight's location of 168P - stars from WDS, HD, BD, Hipparcos, but mostly 4UC.
