CO observations of 308 objects (77 percent) from a catalogue (Brand et al., 1985) of galactic emission and reflection nebulae are presented; CO was detected in the direction of 234 nebulae (76 percent). For 194 of these objects (63 percent) the emission could actually be associated with the nebula. Fifteen objects (5 percent) have associated CO emission with velocity in excess of 50 km/s (VLSR). These objects are of crucial importance as they are potentially very distant, and nearly all of them have been newly identified. In the course of this survey several sources with interesting line profiles were found. Eighteen of them exhibit wings and/or plateaus and are potential CO outflow sources.
