Sure, I'm game to try. There are a couple of options...

We could use a loosely coupled approach -- I have an "Import Schedule" function that allows an externally generated schedule to come in -- I'll send you the format when I sit down on that computer again. Your schedule could then be standalone.

Alternatively, I could directly couple it into the VBA code behind the rest of the scoring system. It would take the number of teams and the number of rounds, and would return the number of matches and a 5 column table with rows consisting of a match number, and a team index (1 to numTeams) for each of the 4 positions. In the case of an extra match, I indicate this by making the team index negative. I will also send the exact call when I sit down with the software again. My code then picks up the table, gets a randomly ordered list of teams, and assigns them to matches based on the index values.

So, did I understand right that at ChiefDelphi you have done alternative pairings (2x2x2, etc) and game rules? What are your plans for this year?

B.
