Calculation of Series Results using Rinderle B not totalling properly.

Imported from Yahoo
1

I have a club series that is up to 12 races now (it may go to 15).
For some competitors (not all) the total points and nett points are
not being calculated properly, and a couple the total is incorrect
but the nett is correct.

Has anyone seen this before?

Is there something I am missing or is this an "undocumented feature"?
I am using 195 build 8.

I'd appreciate some feedback.

Thanks!

Bill,

Difficult to give an answer as we cannot test in the same conditions...

Best attach a .blw file of your regattas

Whoops - I thought I loaded the files before. I was in error (I used
the reply option in email - not the forum, and I guess it didn't get
picked up - oh well - live and learn.)

At any rate, I have loaded two files that show the errors in
calculating the sums for the race points. I have tried to go through
it manually to figure out a pattern for the calculations going awry,
but without success.

Input / feedback on the issue greatly appreciated.

Thanks! - Bill.

Hi - I correctly loaded .blw files a week or so ago. Has anyone had a
chance to look at the files and (hopefully) point out a simple
configuration error I made?

Any help / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
