I am unable to modify my comp star sequences. If I add a new comp star or add the check star in one of my existing sequences the next time I use VPHOT there is no way to get those modifications regardless of having saved the modifications and getting the "sequence have been saved" message by VPHOT.
Can you tell me what to do? It is the fourth time I have to add a check star to my R LMi sequence and as I use Sloan filters it is annoying to retrieve the data from APASS each time.
Thank you

Gianluca:
What is you normal procedure to create your first sequence with sloan magnitudes? I assume that you do it manually since VPhot currently only obtains J/C mags automatically.
I'm not sure what your procedure is and what happens when you set up your comp star(s) and check star the first time. Does it ever work?
Could you share an R LMi image and your sequence to me (MZK) in VPhot?

Yes, I get the Sloan magnitudes from APASS and insert them manually into VPHOT. It has always worked. I just select a comp star in the field for which I have got the APASS magnitudes and click "edit sequence" to insert them manually and the save it. After getting about 3-4 comp stars I get the check star to create the sequence following the same procedure, save it and then save the whole sequence. It appears that VPHOT does not retain the full sequence as the check star is missing.
I share with you an image of R LMi.
Thank you
