Thank you for that, Patrick. I have downloaded the file but do not seem
to be able to use it in Ciel - I am probably doing something wrong but,
when I enter an HD number into the search facility, the view goes black,
with no stars showing. I have tried this with about 10 stars but each
time is the same.

Cheers,
 
Mike

Subject: Re: [skychart-discussion] Henry Draper Catalogue

The Henry Draper catalog contain very crude position this is why I not
build a real catalog. 
But a search index is necessary because many still use it to name the
bright stars.
You can download the index with some other obsolete catalog here:
