OK, I started with an empty obs database and imported your skymap
file. I then created a new plan and dumped the 400 objects in the
Herschel 400 catalogue into it. NGC 40 was marked as observed and
highlighted.
I then downloaded the Herschel club user-contributed plan. Ditto.
Something mysterious is happening. Can you send me a copy of the
"offending" herschel plan? What OS are you using?
