Charts Downloader -- Update

[GameTheory]

Hello,

To those of you using my "ChartGet" charts, programs, & workouts downloader, be advised that Equibase altered their web page design today.

The downloading of charts seems to still work, although I haven't given it a real good look yet -- could be some glitches. Workouts won't download at all now. Programs come from TSN, not Equibase, so they are unaffected.

Anyway, I'm gonna make any necessary changes and will have an updated release for download by tomorrow.

GT,
I keep track profiles on my program EZCAPPER(Cynthia Publishing).Is it possible to use the parser program to export the data to the EZCAPPER database?Any reply at all would be appreciated.

I'm not familiar with that system -- does it automatically import a particular file type, or does it take manual input, or what?

The parser can be used to extract any information in the chart and format it any way you like in a text file. The new version (as yet still unreleased, but available from me) can also create custom fields by doing math on or otherwise manipulating the raw chart data. If the program you're working with requires use of BRIS speed figures or something like that then it wouldn't work, but anything that it is the chart or can be easily calculated from the chart is available -- then it is just a matter of getting the data into the form expected by the program...
