Hi
As a new boy to this results business I apologise in advance if this problem has been solved before and this is old news.However I appear to have entered some boats twice in my first race of the series. They do not appear twice but a warning appears when I score the series that says ‘Boat soandso appears in more than one start of race one’.
But he doesn’t, it is possible that the information has been input twice, but this does not show up in the results, ie the information is not shown as duplicated,but when seen in ‘start names’ I see I have 12 boats with the ++ mark next to them.
What I can’t see is how to correct it, I have even deleted a competitor and put his results back in but the dreaded ++ still appears.
Can someone help please?
David
Hi Divid,
I had that happen when I was firest using Sailwave....
It's not that you entered the competitor's information twice! The problem is in how you defined which competitors were in a race (or start0, so that the scoring calculations see the competitor as entered in two different starts for the same race.

I encountered this problem when I was sent a blw file for publication on a website. It was produced with ver 1.58, but I opened it with ver 1.92 rel 2
I could see the problem when looking at ‘starts’ view, but was unable to rectify it. I overcame the difficulty by getting the scorer to send me the html produced by his ver 1.58.

Hi David, Can you try 1.93 (on the website) please. If that fails can you send me the .blw file (the series itself) and I’ll have a look. Everybody needs to be in a start and nobody can be in more than one start.
