Process INI File

Syntax

Process INI File filename

Parameters

  • filename: The name of the INI file to process, located in the current race folder.

Description

Processes an INI file to import or update participant data by matching incoming records against existing database entries.

Remarks

This command is used for batch operations such as importing late registrations, updating field values from an external source, or applying corrections from a separate data file. The INI file uses the same format as Entries.ini for field mapping and data layout. Records are matched by a key field (typically bib number) and updated fields are written into the database.

warning

This command modifies the database directly. Back up your race data before running it on production data.

Examples

To process a late registration file:

Process INI File late_entries.ini
