Description:
      Relative  proper  motion  data  have  been  widely  used to determine
    membership of open clusters. In view of the fact that  most of  data of
    proper motions had been obtained before Sanders' method was set  up and
    information  on  membership of  open clusters had been mostly published
    without a  statistically  rigorous method available, it is necessary to
    restudy  membership  of  clusters  from  data  by means of the rigorous
    method.  59 pieces of  relative proper motion data for 43 open clusters
    having  been  collected, we, by use of  the improved  Sanders'  method,
    calculate membership  probabilities  of all  the stars  for each field,
    based upon  which  individual member stars are found.  Recently we have
    obtained  proper  motions  and  membership  of  open  clusters  of M67,
    NGC2286 and Orion, which are also included in this new version. All the
    results  concerned are given in the form of catalogue.
