COMMENT Name: The Yale Zone Catalogue star name consists of the following:
COMMENT Name: Bytes
COMMENT Name: 1-2 volume number from the Trans. Astron. Obs. Yale Univ.
COMMENT Name: from which the record is taken;
COMMENT Name: 3 the part number from which the record is taken (with
COMMENT Name: Arabic numerals, rather than I or II)
COMMENT Name: 4-8 the running number of the star in each volume or part of
COMMENT Name: a volume.
COMMENT Name: For example, '11 4289' or '322 1696'. This field is used as a
COMMENT Name: key to the other notes and addenda tables.
