I have just now completed uploading 180 new maps as folder "maps 29 Sep 08" to the USATF server. I had a burp in the middle of the process and am not sure how many courses wound up on the USATF server, as I have no way to check.
Data entry and sending material to USATF is up to date on the registrar end.
Yesterday I mailed USATF a CD with the map folder and the up to date Access course list file. If the electronic transfer was less than satisfactory, they can use the CD. Personally, I find the mailed-CD method easier on my end. I spent 8 hours yesterday trying to make that FileZilla program work. It has little support that I can comprehend.
When I’m informed by Andy Martin that the map files have been updated, I will send the Access file containing the course list, electronically.
I believe the CD method to be more robust and a hell of a lot easier at my end of the data chain. I prefer it. It allows what enters the USATF file server to be compared with what I send, which is something I am presently unable to do.
This was a hell of an exercise, with me taking over the registrar duties from Stu, just when Keith Lively was leaving. One way or another we will work things out.
