In our paper we present VLT-observations in R, I and J of the candidate companion of PSR B1718-19, and also make use of HST observations in F702W, previously presented in Van Kerkwijk et al., 2000ApJ...529..428V. We make available online our astrometry and photometry including error-bars. The field-size is approximately 34x34 arcsec (F702W), 80x80 arcsec (R & I), and 89x89 arcsec (J).
