Colin,
Thanks to all for their suggestions, none were suitable but they made my
grey cells work. My solution appears to work for my requirement and is to
not use the sail number in the <sail number > field of the competitor field
but just use his name. What made me realise this was remembering that the
computer does not care whether it deals with numbers or characters or
symbols.
Anyway it appears to work and I could just enter the last three characters
of the name , the full name appears and the results appear with the helm`s
name in the sail number column and I just change the column name from sail
number to name and visa versa.
I needed this for Travellers and Handicap series where the helm can use
whichever boat for the series and it his name not the boat that counts,
Cheers,
Geoff

Subject: RE: Fw: Result entry>Hi Colin,
I had a question about scoring a boat in a series changing rating part
way
through. Do I have to score this by entering the boat as a new competitor
and calculate manually?
Thanks for the great work! We're enjoying using Sailwave here in Deep
Cove,
British Columbia, near Vancouver.
Malcolm Chaddock
Deep Cove Yacht Club Scorer<No, if you added a new competitor record, it would get scored as a new
competitor. Just double click on the result cell that marks the point at
which the new boats is used and enter a race-spcific rating value. When
viewing the series you can choose to see all race specific ratings to
check
they all look sensible (from the "viewing" drop down).
You could also change the class to something like "Laser/Finn" or
something.
Regards,
Colin

Sailwave will score each 'competitot' you enter for a series. That
competitor can represent anything you like; usually a specific helm/boat
combinatiion but just helm would work as well. If you're running handicap

Perhaps my question was not written clearly by me, as far as I can see I
can only enter results by sail number as in F12 although it says otherwise.
I know I can score by helm but how can I enter by helm`s name?
I am dealing with a series in the same class/PN but the helm is sailing

Subject: RE: sailno wizardColin
In an ideal world (and usually at 'regattas') sail #'s rule. However in
long club series, the same helm may buy a new boat (of the same class), or
S/H sail, with different #'s, and if you are really lucky they swap
between
sails e.g. new one for light winds, older one for when it's honking.
Hence
one reason why results entry by helm might save some grief.
Personally I'd leave it as it is, as it gives me (as results dogsbody)
more
ammo to get the silly sailors to organise themselves properly......

Subject: RE: sailno wizardHi Mike,
OK thanks. What about if the SailNo wizard responded to multiple sail
numbers in the sail number field i.e. if the user entered the sail number
as
"1064,10665" in the competitor record, the sailno wizard would find the
correct competitor when either of these was entered. Would that help? It
means that the race officer can still just record sail numbers and results
with Sailwave sorting things out later.Regards,
Colin

Subject: RE: sailno wizardI agree with this view, sail numbers are fine for 99% of the time. It is
just that, if you were going to change the wizard, I would make it work on
any field rather than just add helm names (although that would be the most
likely one to use). To be honest, it is fine as is.Regards,

Subject: RE: [sailwave] sailno wizardHi Mike,
OK thanks. What about if the SailNo wizard responded to multiple sail
numbers in the sail number field i.e. if the user entered the sail number
as
"1064,10665" in the competitor record, the sailno wizard would find the
correct competitor when either of these was entered. Would that help? It
means that the race officer can still just record sail numbers and results
with Sailwave sorting things out later.Regards,

In an ideal world (and usually at 'regattas') sail #'s rule. However in
long club series, the same helm may buy a new boat (of the same class), or
S/H sail, with different #'s, and if you are really lucky they swap
between
sails e.g. new one for light winds, older one for when it's honking.
Hence
one reason why results entry by helm might save some grief.
Personally I'd leave it as it is, as it gives me (as results dogsbody)
more
ammo to get the silly sailors to organise themselves properly......

Subject: [sailwave] sailno wizardContinuing the discussion about the sail number wizard. Can somebody
explain to me why it would be useful to turn this into a 'any field'
wizard.
My assumption was that results are recorded against sail numbers on the
water and then the sailno wizard can be used for fast entry against
those
sail numbers. Are we saying that results are sometimes recorded as helm
name and position/elapsed etc when written down by the race officer?Regards,

Subject: Re: sailno wizardColin,
Yes, our club records helm and elapsed time on the water. We typically
have few enough boats racing that the RC knows everyone by name.But this isn't a problem for me in sailwave - I simply put the helm name
and boat type in the sailnumber field (ie. "Duncan CAT22"). Then when
entering results I can type the first few characters of the name and it
pulls up the rest automatically. Works great as-is for me.Jay

Subject: RE: sailno wizardWe have a couple of boats that have "used" sails and have different

on the main and jib. Illegal, I know, but we don't worry about it in club

since some r/c's record the jib number and others record the number on the
