Comment: Great! Finally!
Could find Buckleboo in typing: buckle
The database on the CD from the 2000 catalogue is lousy programmed. Leads to
dead-locks on my computer.
In windows versions <2000, some variables stay unassigned, so that the
combined search produces errors.
(Never got my 150Euros back).
Updates, other than mentioned in the Catalogue, never were available,
and to search for a single meteorite required to know the complete name with
correct spelling.
On the othe hand, the BMNH-online searchable database gives only the basic
data to each meteorite.
Thus this new database is welcomed by my heart!!!!!!
Nevertheless soon I will buy Joern's Metbase.
