Import Meet Results from Pro ATHLETE

Import Meet Results from Pro ATHLETE for Palm OS

Previous Top Next

This feature offers the ability to import (hot sync) meet results (including splits) that have been entered on your PDA running our Pro ATHLETE for Palm OS software using the Active Track Meet. This "Active Track Meet" must have been previously set up and exported from TEAM MANAGER to Pro ATHLETE as an Entry Meet.

In order for this feature to operate, you must have previously installed the following software on the same computer as your TM database:

Palm Desktop software that you received when you purchased your hand held.

Pro ATHLETE for Palm OS software Release 1.2 or later. This product may be downloaded from our Palm Web page at www.hy-tekltd.com/track/palmpro.

Click on File, then Import, then Pro ATHLETE for Palm OS, and TM will check the information that was last hot-synced from your PDA running Pro ATHLETE to your computer running TM. TM will display a list of athletes and marks that have been hot-synced back from Pro ATHLETE. You have the option to select or de-select any particular meet result before you click on the Import button. You also have the option to Overlay Existing Results. When you have selected which results you want to import, then click on the Import button and TM will store those results and splits in your database. TM will assume that the meet results have been hot-synced back to the standard palm directory. But if that is not the case, click on the Set Pro ATHLETE Import Directory button to choose the directory that you set up when you installed your Palm-based software.

If you choose to enter results into "Open Events" instead of using the events that were previously exported from TM to Pro ATHLETE as "Entries", then those results will be stored as Open Events. If you choose to enter results for a NEW event using Pro ATHLETE (i.e., an event that was NOT previously set up in TM for this meet), then when you hot sync the results back to your TM database, TM will add that new event to your Result Event list as the next available event number.
