Custom rating - any examples?

Thank you all for your answers to my questions yesterday.

The one that is still stumping me is how to make our PHRF
time-on-time
handicapping work.

Does anyone have a file with Custom rating that I could look at to
figure out what I'm doing wrong?

Can you give me any hints for why I'm having trouble getting the e=
and r= formulae to be consistent? (Besides having problems with
algebra, I mean.) Is it necessary to have them consistent in order
to
get the corrected-time to come out?

My formulae (from PHRF-Lake Ontario) are
c = e * ( 685.411 / ( 514.411 + r))
e = c * (r + 514.411) / 685.411
r = (685.411 * e / c ) - 514.411

Thanks again,

Havent kept up with all the latest versions but I had a problem withversion 38 doing time on time until i figured out that you dont but in the C= part of the formula >>>just the right hand side of the equation

c = e * ( 685.411 / ( 514.411 + r))
e = c * (r + 514.411) / 685.411
r = (685.411 * e / c ) - 514.411

Wouldn't r be:-

r = (685.411*e - 514.411*c)/c

Send me the series (the .blw file) if you're still having trouble...
