Actually I don't think we need a separte section for Speculator however it would be helpful to have a files section for Spec to get some help from.
There just doesn't seem to be enough written information that helps with the use of the program. I was composing a list of questions for Guy but at this point I guess those will go unanswered. Some of questions may be answered by users of the earlier programs. I am not sure.
I think Speculator is a really good program but hard to master for a first timer like me. I'm not sure when I'll actually get good at this but I keep working on it. If we measure it by my results Tuesday at Mountaineer it may take a decade or two! One thing I am pretty sure of is there is no reason that this prorgam can't be ported over to Windows by a good Visual Basic or C++ Programmer. It woudln't/shouldn't change the program but it would make recording post race information a lot easier.
I made a posting responding to Exacta's original post and agreed with him but I really didn't mean a separate section of the board, only a file area for instructions on use of the program. I guess the post never made it.
I don't know if you keep track but the next Windows version is about six months away. Called Windows Vista. XP will stay around for a while more as they are working on SP3 which should be available by end of year. Not sure abotu the ability of Vista to run DOS programs at this point.
