Hi Colin
Is there any way you can make entering the time finished easier by using a default 24 hour clock as standard in the wizard input using format 00:00:00 instead of using the colon keys all the time. I know it’s just a finnicky thing but it will make it easier and quicker for me to get to the bar after the racing - seconds count - especially when it involves serious issues such as drinking

Absolutely, and I intend to do a couple of improvements in this area including allowing fixed 4 (implied 0 secs) or 6 digit entry without any special characters at all.

Colin
Thanks Colin, I can see my bar manager smiling already - Keep up the good work and if you are ever near Lymington let me know and I’ll make sure a pint is waiting for you.

The 'full stop' or 'dot' key works OK Far easier to use than the 'colon' key as it's on the numeric keypad! Hope this gets you to the bar much quicker!!!!

With 30 boats entering 60 dots per race will take about 5 seconds a race, at two races a week for say 30 weeks, we are looking at potentially gallons of beer a year - thanks for the suggestion but I will keep it away from my bar manager !!!
Thanks for the thought
Paul

Paul,
By your own calculations, 5secs a race, 2 races a week for 30 weeks is 5*2*30=300secs or 5 mins. If you can drink 'potentially gallons of beer' in 5 mins no wonder your bar-manager is smilling!!!!!!
