Hi I am watching Round 6 of the Euro Juniors - mid way through match. I've just checked the scores (rs| line) on the lin file on my hard drive and there are discrepancies with the Closed room Movie window. In the lin file some scores are only shown as 3DE and 3NW when they are 3DE= and 3NW= in the live Movie window.

I wonder what is going wrong as it leaves some guesswork to complete a lin file if you have not written down all the Closed scores ... or maybe I can assume where a sign is missing that it is always the "=" sign

I've noticed this in other Euro Junior files - is it a software or operator problem?

As far as I can tell the operator left out the = sign when
he typed in the closed room results.

The software assumes lack of a result means that the
contract made exactly.

I don't think this is really a problem.

Thanks Fred

But NetBridgeVu.exe doesn't assume anything (for the lin file stored to hard disk) - so it means the rs| line has to be edited manually if looking at the match later - easy enough to do as long as it is known that that it is just the "=" sign that is missing.

Works for me.. closed room 3DE on board 5 and 3NW on board six show up as making exactly

Hmmm - Interesting : If I left click the file to open it directly it works fine as Ben says ie 3DE shows as 3DE= and 3NW shows as 3NW= and the correct scores and Imps are shown. However if I right click and open with NetBridgeVu, I just see 3DE and 3NW without scores or Imps. I'll look into it but if anyone can point me in the right direction quickly - yes please!

When I open the file it shows as 3DE without the equal sign, but all the scores are reflected just fine.
