Description:
    We present 1300{mu}m continuum observations and measurements of the
    CO (1-0) and (2-1) emission from the inner regions of 98 normal
    galaxies. The spatial resolution ranges from 11arcsec to 45arcsec.
    The sources come from a complete FIR selected sample of 138 inactive
    spirals with an optical diameter D_25_<=180arcsec.
