I am scoring multiple divisions in a series separately using CHIPS highpoint scoring, but would like to publish an overall series ranking/winner by total points accumulated by boat. I can sort the competitors by total points to see the series ranking, but I can't find any way to publish this overall result.
Is there a way to "fake" the program to publish the result, or provide a way to get in the program? Right now, all I can do is do a screen copy.
Thanks.

Hi Tom,
Presuming you score by Division already.
I do this with elapsed times. I think it should work with Scored Points
Export series to Windows clipboard, tab delimited. Currently visible race cell value is exported (Scored Points)
Paste into Excel, twice
Change the Division for the second copy to ‘Overall’ or whatever you want to call it.
Export to CSV
Use import series from CSV file into a new Sailwave file.

Hallo Tom,
I use aliases. Activate "aliases" in user defined settings, copy every boat/competitor, change division to "overall" and define an alias to the original competitor. Then You can use standard publishing templates ...
All works automatic! No copying to clipboard or excel needed!
