The MPCORB Database Access Component package has the tools for converting the Minor Planet
Center orbital elements catalog into a Microsoft Access database.
The program makes the elements available to ASCOM scripts and client-programs and the access to Microsoft in not needed.
The MakeDB.wsf tool builds the database from scratch and the component provides virtually instantaneous scriptable access to the database.
A demo tool, GetElements.wsf can be used to test
and browse the database.
