Astronomical catalogues are powerful tools for carrying out modern theoretical and observational studies. Analysis of catalogue data enables important information to be obtained and does not require modern expensive observational techniques to reach reliable scientific results. In this paper we give some examples of such approaches and present some results of successful work with catalogues.
