B-Mag and V-mag for galaxies are now taken from LEDA instead of SIMBAD. Many magnitudes from SIMBAD claimed poor precision ("E" class from "A" - best to "E" - worst), while LEDA magnitudes usually show smaller errors. As usual, where it was decided to maintain SIMBAD values this is annotated in OpenNGC notes column. This also allowed to populate V-Mag column for over a thousand objects more.
Some objects which are claimed as GPair or GGroup in NED had their classification corrected. Usually these are galaxies with a superposed star which led to a wrong classification. There were also a couple of misidentified galaxies which are double or triple stars.
Finally, the remaining galaxies which haven't got any diameter or position angle available from LEDA or SIMBAD have been measured from DSS images and I put some rough estimated value myself.
