You should see "Palm Handheld - Attach". Click that and the hotsync should start. Unfortunately you have to do that every time you hotsync; haven't yet found a way to attach the Palm's USB port permanently to the virtual machine - it disappears as soon as the hotsync is done, and the USB menu says "No device found."

About the Sub Problem: Although we fixed the sub issue with version 2.2 you still will have problems with old rosters that were created in an earlier version so don't use a lineup from a game with the sub issue. Create a new game on the PC or on the Palm by retyping in the lineup (don't use the pull down to select a lineup).
Version 2.1 Fix: Bug when substituting players where the same number would appear in the game twice. Also related to fix in sklinup when exporting games over from TurboStats.

Version 2.0 NEW FEATURES Added: Put-Backs, Dive for Ball, Take Charge and tracks Minutes Played. Works with 1.0 game files too. Fix: Stats for games created in TurboStats for the PC and exported over to ScoreKeeper display zeros for the players in the box score of the ScoreKeeper - Game Summary reports.

This will not affect plays you already created, just the default location when New Play is pressed.

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

Older versions:
Version 4.0 F

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.
