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
