Export Meet Manager events to Dolphin

This program converts a list of swimming events from Hy-Tek Meet Manager into a format that can be imported by CTS Dolphin software.

✨ Installation ✨

Download the latest release of events2dolphin.exe from the releases page.

• events2dolphin.exe is built for 64-bit architectures and should run on Windows 8 and later
• events2dolphin-x86.exe is a 32-bit version that can be run on Windows 7
  ❗ Due to Python dropping support for older versions of Windows, this must be built with Python 3.8 and associated libraries. Please use the 64-bit version if possible. ❗

📖 Instructions 📖

1. Export a start list for CTS scoreboards.
   • In Hy-Tek Meet Manager, go to:
     File > Export > Start Lists for Scoreboard > Start Lists for CTS
   • Choose an output folder and the desired session.
   • This will write a set of *.scb files to the chosen directory, one per event in the session.
     Note: You can export multiple sessions then convert and import them all at once.
     
2. Use events2dolphin.exe to generate the Dolphin event CSV.
   • Open the folder from above and select all the *.scb files.
   • Drag the files (all at once) onto this executable.
   • This program will write a file: dolphin_events_X-Y.csv, where X and Y are the first and last event numbers.
3. Load the CSV into the Dolphin software.
   • In the Dolphin software, go to the Events screen.
   • Click Load, and select the CSV from above
     
   • The events should appear in the table, with the name, number, and number of heats.
