Default Astro Spreadsheet in Excel?

Does anyone here know where I can find the old Excel spreadsheet that
used to be available at the following link?

www.mapug-astronomy.net/ AstroDesigns/MAPUG/ObsrList3.htm

It had the SAA 100 list, and a ton of other cool lists. I recently
changed computers, and that file didn't make it over to the new system,
but I loved it. Any help would be mucho appreciado.

Maybe it's me, but I can't get that link to work today, despite Google
and Yahoo! turning it up in my searches for the spreadsheet.

Thanks!

IIRC, it was called AstronomyInfo, and it went through many iterations.
Can't find a one of them on the web now, though...

It looks like www.mapug-astronomy.net is down today.

Google has the ObsrList3.htm page cached however, so you may be able to get
some of the links from that page even without the spreadsheet itself.

Only list I ever found ( a nice one) is
Astronomy Info V1.4.xls
from Francois Ochsenbein [CDS] 03-Apr-1997
If you can edit my email(figs and dbls after@)
I could send it.
(I could not find the gentlemans xls on the net).

This is not the file you are looking for, but is a consolidated list of
approx 3100 objects that I assembled from Messier, Caldwell, the
Herschel 400, R.N. Clark and Barnard's catalogues and lists.
