<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS">Just to mention something here, I use a couple
of programs (MaximDL/CCDC for example) that use either J2000 or Jnow
coordinates. This caused me a few problems when they were out of sync with AP. I
didn't see any configurable option for this and don't know if you want to go
through the effort of addressing this or not but thought I'd mention it in
passing.</FONT></DIV>

have changed all my objects (1690) from epoch 1950.0 to epoch 2000.0. And
now I miss all my images. They are visible in image manager, but not in the
objects-tab. The coordinates in the image-manager are now incompatible with
the coordinates of the objects. Is it possible, to go back with the
objects to epoch 1950.0 ore what can I
do?</DIV></DIV></DIV></SPAN></BLOCKQUOTE><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Ouch! That's a good point. There isn't a way to return the objects from
2000.0 back to 1950.0, but I can add it pretty easily (or create a script to
do so). Also, I should have the option of changing the epoch of associated
images (although while this will associate the images with the objects, they
will be out by 5' - 10' or more, since all images are epoch J2000.0).</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Let me see if I can do that today.</DIV>
