Take a look at the FAQ for sci.space. It is stored on ames.arc.nasa.gov in the directory pub/SPACE (?). It consists of 15 parts and last I remember it had some pointers to doing multi-body orbit simulations. FWIW, make sure in your calculations that the time interval between successive calculations is fine enough otherwise you *will* get round-off errors
