Race Entry 2.0 (Freeware Application)
this page was last modified 26th March 2005
Description
You can use Race Entry 2.0 to fill out your race entry form or just print out blank forms.
Drag 'n' Drop birds from your loft into your basket and then drag your whole basket into the
race entry form.
You can add your birds (Full metal ring particulars, colour and sex) to your virtual loft.
If a bird goes missing it can be tagged as missing and this prevents you adding it to
your basket or the race entry form until the bird has been found. If a bird is killed then
it can be removed from the loft.
Also you can add all your race points and distances, but this is trivial
to fill in by-hand unlike writing all the full ring numbers week-after-week.
Using the software
A default fancier, club and race distances have been installed with the software.
This is just to allow you to play about immediately. (Left Button Down) Drag a bird from your
loft to your basket. When you've got all birds that your racing then drag the basket to the
race entry grid - that's it!
Press Print.
If you are racing more than 22 birds then a second,third sheet etc
is produced automatically.
It's a very simple program - when you are happy with how it works then kill all the birds in the
loft and delete all the race points and add your own particulars.
The application is free because it's designed to generate more interest in the club software
for calculating all the race results on the night. I would greatly appreciate any
comments from people using this software.
The software is provided free and 'as is'.
The software must NOT be sold. You may copy/distribute the software freely to anybody
and I urge people to put it on CD and pass it round their club and federation to spread the word.
If you would like to use Race Entry 2.0 with your federation then get in touch with me (ty/at/tyharness.co.uk replacing /at/ with @) and
send me a copy of your race entry form. I will make the software print out your style of form.
If you want Race Entry 2.0 providing on a CD then there will be a small nominal charge (5 GBP)
to cover the cost of CD duplication and postage.
What's New
Version 3 is on the way.
A new generic race entry form for clubs.

Sort the loft numerically and by sex.
