How to Delete a Record File

A record is simply the fastest time achieved in a particular age group, stroke, and distance. Examples of Records would be a Pool Record, Team Record, Meet Record, State Record, or a World record.

Records can be set up by keying them into a TM Database or by Importing them. Click Here for information about Importing a Record file.

Click on Records from the Main Menu Bar and then Add/Edit Records and TM will display the Records Browser. Click Here for more information about the browser.


Create a Records File
Click on Records from the Records Browser Menu Bar and then Create New Record Set. TM will ask that you give the New Record a Name, Course, Year, and Description. Click the OK button and TM will create that Record.

You can also pick a previous Record from this menu and ask that TM Copy that Record file into the new one you are setting up. This is a nice feature when you want to slightly modify an existing record without loosing the "old" information.

Enter the Record Name (e.g."State"), Course, Year (e.g. "2004"), Description (e.g. "State HS Records"), and Identifying Flag for Reports (e.g. "!" or "*" so that a record time might be indicated as 1:23.45*).


Edit Record Set Description
Click on Records from the Records Browser Menu Bar and then Edit Record Set Description. TM will give you the opportunity to edit the Record description and year fields. Click the OK button and TM will update that new Record description information.
