We seem to have the points showing fine in the program but when publishing to web, copy & paste - or just exporting to the clipboard and then pasting into excel some figures show as
(7.00)
but after copying and pasting come up as
-7

One race has all but 2 competitors negative and others only have one or two.
Any clues?

Hi Linsay,

I've found this in Excel too. I think Excel sees sees a figure in brackets (ie a sailwave discard) as a negative number. I think it's to do wit accounting conventions. If you change the cell formats it should be possible to avoid this.

Good luck, Phil
