Hi, Paul!
I prefer to put "Complex classes" into separate files. You probably don't need to do it, but I' kind of a "control freak".. It is easier (for me) to operate with more files for the complex classes, because I can always go back to the previous file (race). I do save OFTEN, with new filenames...
But, when having "clean" App.A races, it is very practical to have all classes in one file.

I am trying to work out whether it is practical to use SailWave for <BR>
our club.<BR>
<BR>
The immediate thing that strikes me is that all the data sits in one <BR>
file. <BR>
<BR>
We have several classes at our club, eg Lasers, Optis, etc. Each <BR>
class will be racing for a different 'series'. One sailing day looks <BR>
like this:<BR>
<BR>
OP Le Page Trophy 2<BR>
PC K Buxton Cup 3<BR>
ST Aua Trophy 3<BR>
SU Jennifer Croft Memorial<BR>
ON Cowper Trophy 6<BR>
LA Hutchinson Cup 6<BR>
ZE K McIntyre Cup 5<BR>
PT Trevor Naylor 3<BR>
<BR>
The trailing numbers refer to the race number in a series for a <BR>
class. The series can have up to 7 races or as few as 1 (Opening Day <BR>
Pennant - one for each class). <BR>
<BR>
We have a mix of handicap, mark foy and non-handicap races.<BR>
<BR>
Classes may start separately or together. The finishing place is <BR>
always by class, ie 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc for LAsers; 1st, 2nd, 3rd for <BR>
Optis. And of course, the handicaps are within a class. <BR>
<BR>
It strikes me that this wouldn't be unusual. However it appears that <BR>
we would need one BLW file for each class? For each series? We <BR>
don't want anything too complex - our wonderful scorer is not <BR>
computer-literate.<BR>
<BR>
Any pointers? If you don't think it will work that would be good to <BR>
know too.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks<BR>
<BR>
