Program Features:

  • Contest and Class titles are user defined. Up to 24 classes may be defined.

  • Classes for Hormel, reasons, and scores up to 9999 are supported.  Hormel scoring is automatic.

  • Classes can be configured to automatically multiply a raw score for proper weighting of the class.  The multiplier can be changed to 0 or a class may be hidden during a contest to drop a class from tabulations.

  • Sub contest results can be defined for any group of classes.  Sub contests can use the same sorting order (tie breaking) as the overall contest or a specific sort can be defined.

  • Data entry by keyboard and/or bar coded form (uses a light pen).  Keyboard entry by class, class/group, contestant, and missing scores only are supported.  Special data entry/scoring is provided for Keep/Cull, Grading, Milk Quality, and Land Judging

  • Scores can be imported from simple CSV files.  This option is useful for importing from OMR scoring machines.

  • Teams can be any size, team scores are computed from the designated number of high individuals (ex. Top 3 of 4 or top 5 of 5).

  • Contestants can be grouped for rotations and data entry automatically or manually. 

  • Teams can be grouped for separate results reporting (within a single contest).  Useful for combined FFA and 4H contests.

  • Contestants can be grouped for results reporting (ex.  4H age groups). 

  • Contest materials can be printed on your forms (ex. score sheet, Scantron) or as bar coded cards (ex. judging cards)

  • Name tags, judges sheets, and other support materials can be printed including randomized reasons orders and contestant lists.

  • Contestants can be imported from external systems such as the CalAgEd Online Registration system, databases, or spreadsheets.

  • Double checking can be practiced by printing double check sheets during data entry or by comparing the data entry of two separate computers.  A check tabulations report is provided to check for missing and out of range scores.

  • Results can be printed at any time. 

  • Official placing and cuts can be entered at anytime before printing final results.

  • Raw tabulations and status reports to aid score checking can be printed or viewed.

Known Problems/Issues

  • Questions Cards (bar code): 1) Barcode entry may cause Access to crash  Reason is unknown.  2) ABCDE Questions cards cannot be used as key only accepts numbered answers.  Format changed to make bar code enter numbers.  3) Questions Entry showed "Deleted" entries.  These issues are addressed in version 2.07a2 (beta).
  • Bar code font missing in install.  Fixed in 2.07a1.
  • Keep/Cull scores are computed incorrectly (very low) under some conditions. Fixed in Version 2.07a
  • OMR font missing from installation.  Fixed in 2.07a.
  • Import External Scores for Beef Grading classes hangs program.  Fixed in 2.07a
  • Import External Scores does not tolerate contestant numbers that don't exist in the tabulations program.  Workaround:  Enter the contestant.
  • Some reports (Raw Tabs, Individual Results) don't run under Access 2003 SP1.  Load SP2 (free from Microsoft) to fix this problem.  Note: This might be SP1 or the that all of Access is not loaded.

Version 2.07 Changes

  • CATA Code changes for 2007-2008 have been made.
  • A new setup "wizard" has been added to aid configuration
  • On some results reports scores can be suppressed (see Results Report Options)
  • Program has been tested with Access 2007

Version 2.07 Fixes

The following problems in Version 2.06 have been fixed in Version 2.07

  • Contestant Group (for 4H) is not showing in Contestant Entry even when multiple groups are defined. 
  • A "type mis-match" error may occur when attempting to print Individual Results.  The cause of this error is deleting the class title. When a class is not needed make the type of class "hidden" instead of deleting the class title or use the new wizard to setup the correct number of classes.
  • Individual Results will not print for just one class. 
  • Only one Keep/Cull and one Grading class is supported in Livestock.  Multiple classes are now supported.
  • Sweepstakes does not print correctly if individual alternates are used (blank lines).
