Version 5.0H
Fix
: Keyboard entry of stats in the game form.  When you clicked in a stat box the cursor kept moving to the player list box (which is the live game scoring mode)

Version 5.0G
Fix
: Career stats did not get saved the first time you add a player to a game. So the last game was not included in the career totals unless you saved the player twice in the game.

Version 5.0F

Fix: leader report where players without any Free Throws attempts did not appear as leaders
Change: automatically strips off spaces in player names and uniform numbers to prevent "player not found" error
Change: lineup options don't change if team directory changes
New! optional shot chart stat worksheet with stat grids on sides of individual shot charts
New! shot chart worksheets print player numbers before names.  Names are larger and bold text.
Added: court layout prints notes now

Change: diagram printing prints the new pt guard positions

Version 5.0 E

Added: Day of the week in schedule printing
Fix: y2k problem when clicking on a game in the game list it shows the wrong day of the week
Change: when adding games use the last date entered not today's date

Version 5.0 D  (effects ProSeries only)

Fix: When printing plays or steps that span across many pages the printout moved slightly downward after each page printed.  Changed:  Per user request we change the location of the numbered players so that 1 & 2 are now in the guard position, 3 & 4 in the Forward position and 5 in the center position.  This will not affect plays you already created,  just the default location when New Play is pressed.

Version 5.0 C  (effects ProSeries only)

Change: Prevent the user from deleting the last step of a play.   This caused the message "Step not Found".Change: Automatically save plays after adding, inserting or deleting steps. 

Version 5.0 B

Fix: Home and Visitor team names were swapped in the score by periods display in the current game report.  Fix: multiple blank pages print when the stat description key did not fit on the bottom of the report page.

Older versions:

Version 4.0 F

Fix: Two turnover stats were switched in the Stat Filter.  The default format for the playbook is the Numbered Players not the Position abbreviations.

Version 4.0 E

Fix: The correct userdefined stats were not appearing in the reports if you did not check all the user defined categories.

Version 4.0 D

Fix: Problem with input past end of file message in the Game Form caused by entering player names with comma's. Comma's are OK now and you don't have to reenter your team if you used them. Added: Stat description key now works with the Game Reports and Multi Game Summary Reports. Fixed: Leader report with Min Free Throw Attempts selected.

Version 4.0 C

Added: Black and White screens for full and half court plays.

Version 4.0 B

Fix: Saving the number of steps for plays (ProSeries Only)

Release 3.0H

Ver 3.0B (8/30/96) Fixes:  Fixed display of 2p%, 3p%, and FG% to one decimal place.  Fixed crash when pressing <enter> in overtime entry box.  Fixed the add player's box for new games if the "display player number" switch was off.  Automatically turns off average stats (assists, points, rebounds and turnovers ) when printing a game report. Allows "Game Type" selection during <all game summary> reports.  Fixed error message "you must enter game data" after you created a new team and prior to changing any user defined stats.

Ver 3.0C (9/1/96) Fixes: The heading for "Stolen From" and "Bad Pass" were swapped in the Stat Viewer.  Also added a prompt for saving games in the Game Form and fixed the display of  Total Points in the "League Merge" command.

Ver 3.0D (10/10/96): New game clock for live game scoring.  Automatically  tracks the total playing time and time since the last rest for each player.  To start game clock press the "Game Mode Scoring" button in the Game Form.

Ver 3.0E (10/17/96): Fixed minor problem with new game clock.  If a player had no stats for the initial time they were in the game their time played was not saved.

Ver 3.0F (10/26/96). If you added a player into a game but did not click on any stats and add the next player or save the game,  the first player without any stats did not get credited with a game played.  Added new "Print Miser" option button in the Stat Viewer under File>Page Setup to allow single reports the be printed on one page and still eject the page after the report is printed.  Fixed a problem when printing stats with the "Page Break" turned off for the first few reports on the page.  If you then turned on the page break and then printed the stats for the last report,  the page would automatically eject from the printer but the last report would appear to the far right of the page or not at all.

Ver. 3.0G ( 12/10/96). Change the prompt for entering your score when stat checking is turned off ( used to say "less than 5 players in game" ).  Fixed option to delete the last game without removing the player data from the game.  This could have caused a player to have stats in a game they never played in.  It only occured if you did not add any minutes played for any player in the game lineup and then you delete the game. If you add a new game and do not enter all the same players that were in the previous game you would wind up with some player with stats for a game they did not play in.  To fix this problem simply add the player into the game, then use Players > Remove from Lineup and remove them from the game- then resave the game.  This can no longer happen in version 3.0G or higher.

Ver 3.0H ( 12/11/96 ).  Fixed league merge problem that deleted the Total Points stat column and caused the remaining columns to be shifted 1 column to the left.  Also displayed a message about turning off OBE stats. ONLY League Merge was affected.
