COMMON PROBLEMS

When entering a judge's marks the following messages may appear:

Illegal character'- look back at the numbers you have entered until you find a character which is not a number. (If using a numeric keypad this is most commonly a full stop or a star). Delete the illegal character and enter the judge's marks.

Illegal entry - this means a number above 500 has been keyed in. Delete the relevant number and enter the judge's marks.

Duplicate number ... ignored. Check that the judge has in fact duplicated the number on his recall card and click OK.

Number not in this round. If this is not a first round this means the judge may have mistakenly written down a number that does not exist or a keying error has been made. Delete the number and enter the judge's marks again.. If this is a first round and it appears that the number has in fact danced in the competition, delete the number and enter the judge's marks (so that you do not lose the remainder of the numbers). Exit the event, go to Setup, scroll down the events box to the relevant event and add the number to the original list of competitors. Exit Setup, scroll to the relevant event, select the required dance and judge and add the number to your recall numbers list. (Don't forget to 'Enter' the judge's marks after adding the number).

When requesting the computer to Calculate No marks entered for Judge C in the Waltz. This means that either the judge's recall sheet has not been input or you have neglected to click on Enter at the end of the judge's marks. You must re-select the relevant dance and judge, re-input the marks and don't forget to click Enter when you have finished.

In the rare event that you appear to have 'lost' all of your input marks during a competition don't panic. Make sure that the round showing in the top left-hand side of the screen is the correct one. Exit scrutelle. Re-select the program and file, scroll to the event on which you were working and the marks input up to that point should reappear. If you seem to have any problems this procedure seems to be a safe way to recover your work.

At the end of a competition you can decide to keep the file containing the marks (which is good practice in case any of the marking sheets go astray) or the file can be deleted by clicking on the Right Hand button and going to delete in the normal way.

Many of these instructions may sound complicated but if you have a general working knowledge of Microsoft Word you will find all of the instructions are logical to the procedures needed to operate that particular program.
