Anyone. Can you tell me what the latest version is and where I can find it? I'm a little confused between the ver. 8.2, 2.3, and 2.31. I know Mike posted it somewhere but I can't find it.

Thanks and appreciate your help.

There are 2 features that I like....but they are both not in same program


1) HHX Program has the ability to produce a .CSV file for those that what to take it and do other stuff with it...( Just a note on this file : The only thing missing is the TOTAL POINTS that could have been in Column "Z" for each horse , but its just in the Top 4 Summery)

2) MT Program has the weights broken down by Surface and Distance...

If Handi can incorporate these in his program then I see a more complete program...


Something that I can throw out as an addition is to have "Rankings" next to each number in each category...

Ex:

CL

83-4
66-7
92-1

Mike

P.S. I feel funny asking and talking so much about this awesome program these guys are making and no one else is joining in...

I agree , a csv with them ranked would be nice, less work after the export.

Another thing different from my original formula that I now use and is better at comparing unlike values, is to make everything a percentage of the field total, then sum the percentages for the final ranking.

Are you talking about instead of total points, total percentages represented by adding the individual factor points based on their percentage of the individual factors?

Handi

Handi , thats more doug has to answer....

The way I use the points is like this....

Race 4...this race I consider a less contentious race to the top horse(s) based on separation of points

Race 9 is more open race..

Capish?

I get it. That post was for Doug actually. I should have been more clear.

Thanks,

I have not familiarized myself with the code nor have I used the the csv part of HeadHawg's code. So could someone explain to me how it essentially works? Do you get a csv file for each race? Where does the csv appear on your computer?

Thanks,
Handi

P.S. If anyone communicates with HeadHawg please let him know I am trying to reach him. Sent him a PM but no response yet.
