Importing Results from a CSV file

Hi all, I’m trying to workout the best way of importing some race results from a SW series saved to CSV file. All works apart from the actual race columns. I can’t see how you are supposed to map the source R1, R2, R3 race columns to individual target columns, the only obvious target column name is RaceNo (see attached), but when R1 is mapped to this field nothing appears in the target R1 column.

If anyone has any pointers I would be most grateful.

I have not chosen the Merge races option as I only want to import certain races from the source series, e.g. if the source series is sailed on both Saturdays and Sundays I only want to import the Saturday races into a new series (and the Sunday races into another series).

Many thanks.

Regards,

Jools.

Hi Jools,

  Have you read the information available on the Sailwave web site

at .

  You will have to delete the Sunday race columns to get a file for

importing into your Saturday series and delete the Saturday race
columns for importing into the Sunday series. An alternative would
be change the race column headers so that they are not recognised
as a default race label by Sailwave.

  I don't think you can do without some editing of the CSV file(s)

you want o import into your Saturday Series and your Sunday
series.

  In my view a quicker way to do this would be to make a copy of

your combined series called Saturday series and a copy called
Sunday series. I would then delete the Sunday races from the
Saturday file and delete the Saturday races from the Sunday file.

Hope this might help you.

Kind regards,

Huw

Hi Huw,

I’m reading your reply and laughing at my own lack of imagination here. Yes, of course your idea is much more straight forward!

Thank you.
