Larry,

This is really sweet. Which parts of the RSS are you having problems with?

Well I figured that a ninja is quite maneuverable. Based on all the ninja turtle movies I have watched multiple times.
Other values are more generic.
Poor
Fair
Good
Great

New Version 1.1!
Here is a new version of the database.
Team_1511_2009_Scouting_Database_V1.1_Installer-Source.zip

This version fixes the installer issues that were in the previous version. It should allow users to install wherever they want but to be honest the default should work best.

Please provide feedback if anything needs improvements.

Thanks!

Great job.

Just wondering how do you check the pit scouting information?

Just open the file with one of three programs. Excel, Wordpad, or Notepad. It is just a tab delimited text file. I think for the next version I will just save it as a .txt file.

The pit scouting file is located in the base directory of the application under the PitData folder. For example:
C:\Program Files\Team 1511 2009 Scouting Database\V1.1\PitData

Interesting. I just tested the link and it seemed to work fine. Could you give me any more details on what error you saw?

The link in the first post is not working but the links in the other posts are working.

Yes this is correct. The first link is a earlier revision. You want version 1.1 which is the last link in this thread.

Danny,
If I tried to put the address for the RSS feed into the Datasocket Read it would pop up a error. It seamed to open the link ok but as soon as I tried to do a read it would error. I wonder if my data type is incorrect. I was just using a string value but maybe it needs to be something else. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Larry

I sit about 4 desks down from the guy who owns the datasocket protocol at NI. If you send me a very small, simplified code set that doesn't seem to work, I can most likely ask him to tell us exactly why (and even how to fix it).

Please send it to my ni.com e-mail account.
