- Additional Notes
- ────────────────
-
- o The file BOWLSTAT.CFG should be COPIED to the name of your league.
-
- For example:
-

- o When using BowlStat V1.2, make sure the keyboard is in CAPS LOCK mode.
-
- o To use the Yearly Stats Marker (BOWLYSM), first change the default parm
- "RECORD STRINGS TO DISK" from "N" to "Y". This allows string scores to
- be saved to the disk drive where they can be later analysed.
