What do I do with Carnival.tps?

You are likely to receive a carnival file via email or possibly on a memory stick.

 

1.Save the carnival.tps file to a new folder  eg C:\Sportstrak2200\Interschool

It is actually best to include the year in folder names such as Swim 2013 or ISAths 2013, and keep these folders inside the main SportsTrak folder.

The destination folder in the first screen shot below is SSV Swim 2013, which tells me Who, What and When.

2.Run SportsTrak

3. Change the data location of your SportsTrak to point to C:\Sportstrak2200\Interschool.  


       SportsTrak 2200

 

Go to menu option: Import/Export > Import a Carnival

Use the first lookup button (binoculars) to locate the carnival.tps file which you just saved. This one is CARNIVAL_SSV.tps

 

CarnivalWindow2200

 

Use the second lookup to select the folder where you wish the files to be extracted to.
It is simplest to use the same folder as where you saved the carnival file.

 

Click on the button Extract Carnival Data...

 

The folder C:\Sportstrak2200\InterSchool will now contain the complete carnival organized by the sender of the carnival.tps file.

 

Close the window and check the program of events.


 SportsTrak 2100

If your file is not named exactly "carnival.tps", rename it so it is. You may have received a file made in ST2200 that is allowed to have a different name.  In ST2100 it isn't allowed to, even though the file is identical internally

 

Go to menu option: Import/Export > Import a Carnival

 

Use the first lookup eye to locate the carnival.tps file which you just saved.

This will be C:\Sportstrak\InterSchool\carnival.tps in this example.
