| The Scoring
Program |
| The Scoring Program is in English,
and we think you will find it very easy to use. The instructions are
in the Scoring Manual
section. |
| Obtaining
a copy of the program |
|
To obtain Version 6.2.0 of the Scoring
Program (8.5M download) - Download sims.zip
to a folder on your hard disc. Then Unzip it using winzip
which will create about 12 files in the same folder. Now double
click on the setup.exe that has been created and this will install
the program for you. YOU WILL NEED this version for the August event.
Alternatively, email anna@ecats.co.uk
and we will send you a copy of the CD - please note that we will
only send by ordinary airmail, NOT by courier.

| Practice
Sessions |
| We would like you to test the program
before the event by scoring one of your normal club nights. You can
then upload the results by using session number 9999 which is our
test area. When you have uploaded your test results you will be
able to see them at http://bridge.ecats.co.uk - follow the
link to SIMS and then to the test result area. |
| Adapting
your own Scoring Program |
| If you have your own scoring program,
it is quite possible to adapt it to provide the results in the format
that we need in order to be able to score the event across the whole
field. You can email wbf@ecats.co.uk for details of the format
if you wish to try this, but please make sure that you practice uploading
some files well in advance so that we can make quite sure that they
will work |
