Import for State and Regional

Preparation for Import
  1. Setup folders for each "feeder" tournament on the hard drive of the Main Computer.
    1. Use something like c:\d1, c:\d2, c:\d3, and c:\d4
      • Hy-Tek uses default names for the Backup and Advancer files.
        1. It's possible the Advancer Files could all be named Tcl02-01.tcl and the Roster Files could all be named Tcl01-01.tcl (or whatever) so they need to be saved in separate folders.   (or disks)
      • It doesn't matter where they are as long as you browse to them when you import advancers in Hy-Tek.
      • Rather than renaming each TCL file attachment or saving to a disk, it's easier to put the files in separate folders,
    2. Before import, you will need to determine which TCL file is for Rosters and which is for Entries
  2. Setup Hy-Tek with two meets
    1. Setup the Master Meet for the tournament
      1. Make sure all events and parameters follow the OHSAA Event Numbers and Setup
      2. Under Setup | Athlete / Relay Preferences
        • Check Enter Competitor Numbers | and Disable Uniqueness
        • Other options for athletes should not be checked!
      3. Purge selectively and delete all Teams | Athletes | Entries/Results | Relays
      4. Save and wait for data files.
    2. Setup a simple Top4 Import Meet
      1. Make sure all events and parameters follow the OHSAA Event Numbers and Setup
      2. Under Setup | Athlete / Relay Preference
        • Check Enter Competitor Numbers | and Disable Uniqueness
        • Other options for athletes should not be checked!
      3. Purge selectively and delete all Teams | Athletes | Entries/Results | Relays
      4. Save and wait for data files.
  3. Review and test everything a few days before the data is imported.
When e-mail arrives:
  1. Save all attachments to the folder for that site.
    1. Select all attachments and browse to the folder
      1. With Outlook Express, you can Right-Click on the attachment bar and save all files.
      2. Other e-mail programs may do it differently.
    2. Determine which TCL file is for Rosters and which is for Entries.
  2. After the files are saved, you can close the e-mail.
