The expressions of new ionization-correction factors (ICF) (see these Proceedings) are employed for the determination of chemical composition of the 200 galactic planetary nebulae(PN) and 43 HII regions in blue compact dwarf galaxies (BCDG). We have used PN spectra from different papers published previously (> 100) and HII region spectra from (Izotov, Thuan, & Lipovetsky 1.994, Izotov, Thuan, & Lipovetsky 1997, Thuan, Izotov, & Lipovetsky hys. J. 1995). Code DIAGN (Holovatyy et al. 1999) developed at Astronomical Observatory of Lviv National University is also used. Atomic data for determination of ne, Te and the ionic abundances (A+i/H+) were modified to be compatible with the CLOUDY94 code (Ferland G.J. 1999).
