Bob Rose, or someone at group, please:
I have copied byte order info., (please see below) that I entered at window # 3
in CatGen 1.3 (please note I added zeros as Cat Gen did not anticipate more
bytes further along into catalog.

I find 20 fields and have entered 20 fields, but every time get error message,
i.e. <Required Field Missing!>
Please explain where I have gone wrong?
I hope everything lines up in posting!
The catalog referred to is <CDS I/90 Positions of 502 Stars in Pleiades Region
(Eichhorn+ 1970)>
