======================================
VERSION 2.8+
Lotto-Ware Victoria
870 Gladiola Ave
Victoria B.C.
Canada V8Z 2T6
If you can not see PC-LOTTO program on MonoChrome monitor then you
have to change color attributes using SubProgram <MISC>.
There MUST be subdirectory TABLES on each PC-LOTTO disk for storing
Wheeling Tables and selected Tickets. Do not forget to copy it ! ! !
PREFACE
This program is intended for people who like to play Lotto.
If this is you, you are probably looking for some relationship between
drawn numbers. Is there any or not? Can we find a system which WORKS ?
One thing is for sure, here are millions of dollars to be won by
the people who crack Lotto's winning combination.
Everybody knows, that Lotto numbers are drawn randomly.
But watch out !! With this program you can see for yourself that some
numbers are picked more frequently in a given time period
then others. Up to 5 to 6 times more often.
Utility program FREQUENCY will tell you how many times each
number was drawn in a given time period.
Subprogram PC-LOTTO QUICKPICK will pick out six numbers out
of the category you select.(HOT, COLD, RANDOM numbers,etc.)
If you forget some reports a few weeks back, no problem you can
turn the clock back and get them again. Do you want to see specific
situations. Let's say .. 12 draws back? Use HISTORY MODE.
Enclosed is your user friendly manual. We hope you enjoy this
program and wish you success in the LOTTO.
--------

HOW TO GET STARTED
The best manual is No manual. This program is menu driven and you can
try each report on Menu to see what it does. All you need is
continuous paper loaded into the printer. As some reports are two or three
pages long.
Boot up computer with DOS disk. Enter Time and Date.
For proper functioning an Updated File of Lotto winning
numbers is needed. Put the disk in the drive and type
PCLOTTO <ENTER>
One of the LOTTO files is loaded by the program. Use subprogram LOAD
ANOTHER LOTTO in the case this is not a LOTTO you want to play. Any
LOTTO can be saved as a default when the program ends. (press 'L')
A list of all LOTTO files is on the screen. Press <D> to move down
or <U> to go down in the list. When you found your choice press <E>
for entering. Now enter the number for example: <12> and <ENTER>.
The LOTTO number 12 is loaded into the memory.
Main menu is on the screen. First letter of each line is highlighted
and you pick out <W> for WORK WITH MAIN FILE. The best way is to get
Hard copy of the file on your printer. Compare the list of winning numbers
with the official list from your State or Provincial LOTTO . If there are
no differences then press <Q> for Quit and get back to main menu.
Find the last entry and update the file pressing 'E' (Enter Winning
Numbers). Program will ask you to enter numbers from each draw.(incl. BONUS
if appl.) As soon as the file is up to date, view it again and make sure,
that there is no mistake. Any problems could be corrected by entering
program "WORK WITH MAIN FILE" (press 'W') and let yourself guide through
the procedure. You can edit, delete or insert any entry.
GET REPEATING SETS
You have to specify the number of last draws you want to work with.
It must be a minimum of 10. Take into consideration how many draws there
are per week. If you enter 16, it means in the case of two draws per week,
that you are working with winning numbers from last eight weeks ( = two
month). If there are three numbers which repeated themselves at least twice
the program will find them and print them on report. The same thing with
couples of numbers which come together at least twice in the same period of
time. This action is time consuming and you might want to go and get
a cup of coffee meantime. It depends on the number of draws and on the
speed of your computer, expect anywhere from 15 minutes to 3 hours.
REPORT ON A SINGLE NUMBER.
Select your favored number and find out which numbers are "the best
partners" of your number. Listing scans number of draws you specify
and counts how many times the number came together with number 1, 2
3, 4 and all other numbers. If you are betting on one or two numbers
most of the time it helps to know what other numbers have a close
relationship with our preferred choice.
------

FREQUENCY
How many times did they draw number <36> in the last three months? And
what about number <13>? We know that certain numbers were "missed" in the
last several draws. But how many times? All these questions will be answered
by program FREQUENCY. And more! The list will be established and sorted to
show which numbers are "The Best" (HOT) and which numbers were missed and
how many times in a row (COLD NUMBERS). List of HOT NUMBERS is dependent on
the number of draws, and is different if we look at the last 20 draws or at
the last 100 draws. This is important to remember! SCORING HOT NUMBERS are
computed as an average from all five reports. Lotto 6/49 example:
Number 31 for 200 draws first place = 49 points, 31 for 100 draws 2nd place
is 48 points, 50 draws fifth place = 45 ponts, 40 draws as second = 48 p.
and 20 draws as third = 47 points. Each number gets points and then sorted
list is made.
CHECK YOUR TICKETS
Compare one ticket or up to 300 of them with Winning Numbers. If you
are playing the same ticket(s) all the time than enter them on the disk
and retrieve them any time and get the printout of prizes. (if any) You
can compare the ticket(s) to several LOTTO systems, as soon as the number
played on one ticket is the same. (6/49, 6/40, 6/36 but not 7/40)
Tickets go to the SUBDIRECTORY TABLES as a file with extension ._S_
it stands for Selected Tickets. Store up to 100 files in each LOTTO system
5,6 and 7 NUMBERS). Up to 300 tickets in one file.
Files with tickets are stored on the disk from WHEELING SYSTEMS just
as well and could be checked the same way. Each file is added to the MENU
automatically.
Files of Selected Tickets created prior to VER 2.34 are not compatible
with the new program. If you want to keep them, they have to be re-entered
using Manual Entry subprogram.
PC_LOTTO QUICKPICK
Computer will pick out numbers for up to 300 tickets. You can direct
picking to certain groups of numbers. One of the choices also being six
RANDOM numbers. You can tell the computer to pick, let's say, six numbers
out of the TOP 20 from the LIST OF HOT NUMBERS based on last 12 draws or
from the LIST OF COLD NUMBERS or any combination of the above.
FIXED NUMBERS - select up to 3 numbers which appear on each ticket.(the
ones you "feel for sure" will be drawn the next time!).
Buy the tickets or play just "on paper".
The next draw will show you if it was a right choice. If you do
not want to wait for the next coming draw then put yourself back,let's say,
ten draws using HISTORY MODE. All the numbers picked while in HISTORY MODE
will be checked against 10 "future" draws which already occurred and if
there was a prize it would be printed. There is an endless choice of
combinations and lots of room for you to choose the "best" system for
numbers. Also if it does not work this time it may start working two weeks
from now. Remember, our goal is to find a strategy which will give us the
best return on our invested money. This way we stand better chance of
collecting the Jackpot or any other major prize.
Numbers Not Wanted : enter up to 4 numbers. They are prevented from
being picked when selecting from RANDOM, HOT or COLD NUMBERS.
PICK FROM A HAT. Imaginary HAT is created. Fill it with your numbers
and only those numbers are used for selection.
USE NUMBERS from the last 1,2 or 3 draws. One number or up to 3 numbers.
All tickets are checked for duplication. If you want 300 tickets, make sure
there are enough numbers to choose from. Abort using <ESC> when desired.
------
- 4 -
SCREEN A) AVOID NUMBER(S) 1)__ 2)__ 3)__ 4)__ (NOT WANTED)
USE H) HOT NUMBERS (0)
C) COLD NUMBERS (0)
F) MY FIXED NUMBERS -- -- -- (0)
L) ? FROM THE LAST ? DRAW(S) (0)
R) RANDOM PICK FROM ALL NUMBERS (0)
D) DRAW FROM MY HAT (0)
IN HAT: 1)__ 2)__ 3)__ 4)__ 5)__ 6)__ 7)__
....... 21)__
TOTAL = (0) 6 LEFT
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember - whatever the choice, it is still random pick. Here is an example.
Assume, that you have to choose 6 numbers from 49 numbers for a LOTTO ticket.
If <H> is pressed we are directing the pick to the list of HOT numbers.
It is a good idea to get a hard copy of the list from the subprogram
FREQUENCY, certainly when playing for the first time.
First question appears at the bottom of the screen:
How many to be picked out of HOT NUMBERS:
We have a choice of picking out one,two,three...or all six numbers on our
ticket(s) from the list of HOT NUMBERS. Each ticket has to have six numbers!
Let us pretend we pick two numbers (press <RETURN>). It means we have 4
numbers left and screen is changing
LEFT = 4
The list of HOT NUMBERS has 49 lines and we are asked:
Use ?? from the list of HOT NUMBERS: (8-25)
Now we are targeting certain group of numbers on the list. Enter 12
this time. A portion of the list with twelve numbers will be used as "a
bag" for our random pick. It is obvious, that we have to mark the first
number of those twelve on the list. Computer has to be able to extract them.
This is the job of the next question:
Enter starting position of the first number: (1-38)
If we enter number one, then the first number of our 12 is the first
number of the list of HOT NUMBERS. Only the 12 top numbers are used
for random pick. If number 38 is entered then it becomes the first
and number 49 is the last. It means that the bottom 12 numbers of the
list will be used for random pick. If any number between 1 and 38 is used,
then the 12 numbers are extracted from the middle of the list. As of yet
the List of HOT NUMBERS has not been established. It will change with the
number of draws involved. We have to answer the last question:
List of HOT NUMBERS will be made from ?? draws:
Eight is minimum (to keep true random pick) and maximum is the total
number of draws we have on file. List of COLD NUMBERS is always made from
the last 50 draws. There is a reason behind it. If we use only 25 last
draws for the LIST OF COLD NUMBERS then several of them might get tight up
on the first place (not being drawn 25 times in a row). In LOTTO 6/49
(CANADA) occurred that the NUMBER 28 was missed 75 times in a row.
To finish our ticket we need 4 more numbers.
ENTER <F> and fill one FIXED number, it should be your favored. Every
ticket is going to have this number. 3 LEFT.
ENTER <R> for RANDOM PICK. We want 2 from random pick. If no number is
specified as NOT WANTED all 49 numbers are used (in 49 number LOTTO)
ENTER <D> to choose the last number from a HAT. There are no numbers in the
HAT so select 10 of your favored numbers (birthdays,....). One of them
will be selected as the last number on our ticket. The system for making
the tickets is complete. How many do you want (1 or up to 300).
-------

TABLE OF POPULARITY
Some numbers become very "popular" at certain times, some seem to be
"fading away". This popularity is based on the number of draws you specify.
Let's say we picked last 20 draws. Here we see the first few lines of the
report:
-35 -30 -25 -20 -15 -10 -5
-*---------*---------*---------*---------*---------*---------*---------*
1/ 3 3 3 3 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 4 4 4 4 4
2/ 2 2 2 2 3 3 2 2 2 2 2 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 2
3/ 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 2 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4
Start reading at the LAST column. Number ONE was drawn in last 20 draws
four times, number TWO was drawn twice and number THREE four times. How was
THE SAME SITUATION 10 draws back ? That time was number ONE drawn just
once in last 20 draws, number TWO twice and number THREE three times. The
report goes back to show the table up to 35 draws back.
WAIT-FOR-HIT TABLE
25 draws printed, option to print the table from day 1. (glue sheets
together and highlight the winning numbers with a color feltpen -
the method is used by "PATTERN HUNTERS")
This is a convenient way to track Lotto numbers. You can tell at a glance
which numbers are HOT and which are COLD. This table should be used for
choosing numbers using the SKIPPING HABIT TABLE. Some numbers are very
often chosen after skipping certain number of draws.
sample:
SKIPPING HABIT TABLE
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 ...
# ----------------------------------------------------
1) 5 7 4 4 2 2 1 1 - 3 1 2 -.....
.
26) 4 5 4 10 1 4 3 2 3 - 2 1 1 1.......
Number ONE was drawn 5 times without skipping one game and 7 times after
skipping 1 game.(since LOTTO started). A strong 'habit' can be seen if we
look at number 26. It prefers to 'come back' after being missed 3 times.
Number 26 was chosen only ONCE after skipping 4 times. What does it mean
to us? If we see the number 26 being skipped 3 times in our current WAIT-
FOR-HIT TABLE then there is a very good chance that this number will be
drawn next coming draw. It appears to be frequently drawn after missing 3
games. Look at the sudden drop from 10 to 1 when skipped 4 times.
Skipping Habit Table is another word for History of Skips for each
number. How many times was number 26 drawn after it was missed 3 times
in a row? What is the history of that numbers when missing 3 times?
Look at table - it was drawn 10 times when numbers of skips was 3. Look
at 9 misses. It was never drawn when missed 9 times.
WHEELING SYSTEMS
Do you want to dramatically increase your chances to win? Then use a
system, where scientific mathematical tools can help you. Wheeling systems
are an absolute MUST for all serious Lotto players. When you wheel Lotto
numbers, you win by mathematical probability, not by chance. By wheeling
just one extra number your chances are cut from 1 to 14 000 000 to only 1
to 2 000 000. The more numbers you wheel, the greater the chance of
winning.
chart of ALL possible combinations of 5,6 or 7 numbers
is in subprogram THE FIRST PRIZE WHEELING for up to 20 numbers.
------
- 6 -
If you want to go for the first prize then use subprogram
WHEEL FOR THE FIRST PRIZE.
EXAMPLE: Select eight numbers which you feel will cover all six
numbers of the next draw. Your choice is: 28, 1, 17, 35, 33, 22, 16, 20.
When program asks you how many numbers do you want to play then enter
8 and supply your "good" numbers. (They'd better be good, you have to buy
28 tickets!!)
TWENTY EIGHT tickets will be printed and if all 6 numbers drawn are
among your <eight> numbers than one ticket will cover them all and you
are winning the first prize which is usually 1.5 to 14 million in LOTTO
6/49 CANADA> (one lump sum and no taxes to be paid!!)
numbers wheeled numbers wheeled (6 number LOTTO)
7 7 13 1,716
8 28 14 3,003
9 84 15 5,005
10 210 16 8,008
11 462 17 12,376
12 924 18 18,564
To play every possible combination of 12 numbers would cost you $924. Who
can afford to spend that much money on Lotto tickets? Not many of us, but
you can play a Wheeling system which is abbreviated and the cost is
brought down and you can still enjoy the minimum win assurance. Here is a
sample:
6T:12N (4if6) SYSTEM
Translate: 6 tickets, 12 numbers wheeled,
guarantee = if all six Winning numbers are in our 12
numbers wheeled, then the minimum is one ticket with 4
winning numbers. The minimum can be translated: if we meet the worst
circumstances you still get this prize. Chances are, that you get several
prizes and possibly even the Jackpot (if all six in 12). Wheeling numbers
stretches the chances of your betting dollars. By playing 100T:20N (4if6)
SYSTEM you cover close to a half of Lotto numbers (in 6/49). Your chances
are even better if HOT numbers are played.
Store the tickets played on the disk and check winnings using sub-
program <CHECK YOUR TICKETS>.
HISTORY MODE
There may be times when you would like to know how the reports looked a
few weeks back, or just one draw back. You can turn time back up to 25
weeks (50 draws) and evaluate those situations. You can use the computer
to pick out the numbers (program PC-LOTTO QUICKPICK) which will be matched
with winning numbers of all the draws you "went back".
Let's see an example. Go to HISTORY MODE and after pressing 'H'
the computer will ask you how many draws you want to go back. Pick up two.
This means that the computer does not see the last two draws and the
display of THE LAST DRAW on MENU is changed accordingly. You can not ENTER
WINNING NUMBERS or WORK WITH MAIN FILE in HISTORY MODE. You can get
printouts from other choices. The only difference is that all the reports
are 'two draws old'. You can also use PC-LOTTO QUICKPICK. And again, all
the tables used for lists of HOT NUMBERS or COLD NUMBERS are 'two draws
old' but every ticket is compared with those 'two future draws' and all
the 'winnings' are typed out telling you which ticket, which draw and how
many numbers are matching winning numbers. The best way to understand the
system is to try it out. Go to HISTORY MODE and then to PC_LOTTO
QUICKPICK. Try HOT NUMBERS for all six on a ticket and get 100 tickets.
Then try PC-LOTTO QUICKPICK from COLD NUMBERS, again for 100 tickets. Can
you see the difference. Try the same for RANDOM PICK, 100 tickets.

HOW TO START A LOTTO FILE FOR A SYSTEM NOT INCLUDED ON THE DISK.
___________________________________________________________________
Almost any LOTTO system can be started using a subprogram
START A NEW LOTTO
However, there are some limitations.
First of all gather all the informations.
1) FULL OFFICIAL NAME OF STATE OR PROVINCIAL LOTTO
2) HOW MANY NUMBERS ARE USED (LIMITS = 25 to 80)
3) HOW MANY NUMBERS ARE DRAWN (BONUS NOT INCLUDED) (4 to 8)
4) HOW MANY NUMBERS ARE SELECTED ON A TICKET (4 to 8)
5) BONUS NUMBER IS DRAWN (YES OR NO)
6) GET ALL WINNING NUMBERS (+ BONUS IF AVAIL) since day No. 1
ENTER A DATE OF A DRAW AND NUMBERS ONE BY ONE.
To start any LOTTO file you need ONLY the first draw date and numbers.
The next step is to Load the LOTTO you just created (LOAD ANOTHER LOTTO).
Enter all other winning numbers till the most recent last draw. If you have
numbers, let's say, for the last year, you can enter them and insert draws
from the earlier date, as they become available to you. Each draw can be
edited, deleted or a new entry can be inserted at the beginning or to the
middle of the file. (You need at least 20 draws for that)
The Wheeling Systems work only with a LOTTO, where there are 5,6 or 7
numbers selected on a single ticket.
Collect Wheeling Tables from BOOKS, MAGAZINES or from other software.
Up to 300 Wheeling Tables could be added to the program.
(100 for 5, 6 and 7 number LOTTO SYSTEM)

PC-LOTTO Club. ( information )
There is a brand new concept to playing Lotto using a computer. This Club
will supply software and gather all Lotto Players who are interested in
this unique way of playing. Our software package gives you endless
possibilities in extracting information about numbers. Books remain to be
written about the usage of the program. Just imagine yourself playing "the
horses" or "stocks" and using Random Pick or your birthday date. Your
chances would not be improved at all. The same thing with Lotto numbers.
You have to look at your Lotto Playing as an investment. Everybody wants
to get the best return on their investment. Right!! What to do about the
Lotto? If you are buy two or three tickets a year then just don't bother
with this. However, if it is so many tickets per week then you should
think about improving the return on your investment. Is there a guarantee
of winning when you use a computer? No there is not, just like there is
not a guarantee when using a computer while buying stock. Your chances are
largely improved when an intelligent approach is taken. Here you are
combining chances, your skills and the power of a computer. The skillful
player who handicaps the Lotto numbers is eventually bound to win and beat
the odds. Wall Street analysts chart stocks, bonds and commodities,
studying past price action to determine future price trends to reduce odds
against the investor. It is called "Technical Analysis". You are going to
do the same with Lotto Numbers. What is the secret to winning? Just select
the Lotto Numbers that have the greatest mathematical probability of being
chosen the next draw.
Our software package is supplies a large number of information. Lists
of Hot and Cold Numbers which tell you how many times was a number was
drawn or missed in the number of draws you specify. (min 10 and max since
Lotto started). Also many different charts and tables which show hidden
dependences. A special feature and a great aid are The Wheeling Systems.
They are scientific, mathematical tool which allow you to give your money
more leverage and dramatically improve your odds over random selection.
It's a truly mathematical breakthrough for the Lotto Player.
Our concept is brand new and we feel there should be a center or core
where all experience, tips and hints would be collected and passed back to
the users. That is why PC-LOTTO Club was started. The cost is minimal and
the benefits are great. There are millions to be won each week.
Report all "bugs" (if any) and tell us about any suggestions you might
have. Tell us about your experience with the program, what works for you
and what would you recommend to others. Please, report all the winnings
over $500. Your name will never be published, just initials and the
city.
We need input from you for our PC-LOTTO Club Newsletter. Share with us
"your story of winning". Or your story "of playing LOTTO using the
computer". Everybody is curious how to improve odds and what is the way
"the other guy is taking". The concept is much bigger then the author.
LotoWare Victoria is more concerned with improving the code, making it
better and faster, adding more utilities and keeping the price low then
writing books about "How to use PC-LOTTO." There is a room for other
vendors and for user input. As a registered member you can expect an
improved version arriving the next year along with the Newsletter. Our
goal is to have the PC-LOTTO Club Newsletter printed at least four times a
year.
SET COLOR
You are able to set the color attributes for your color (or Mono)
monitor starting with version 2.3+. Choose subprogram MISC and play
with colors till you are happy. Default values are stored on the
disk and retrieved again whenever the program is started.
Please, when distributing Shareware version, do so with Mono Monitor
(original) default file. Users might not be able to see text with your
color monitor settings on their MonoChrome Monitor. IMPORTANT!!!!!!!

WHAT CAN THE PROGRAM DO :
- Check if there was ever any winnings on combination of your numbers.
- Find the BEST number in the last 10 or 100 or 300 draws. Or in any number
of draws you specify. For example: The BEST NUMBER (Lotto 6/49 CANADA)
is 7, drawn 54 times in 317 draws, compared with "the worst" number
15, drawn 26 times. Get sorted list of "HOT NUMBERS" for any number of
draws. You can imagine, that the list will change a bit with each new
draw. Some numbers keep themselves among "HOT NUMBERS" if you get last
300 draws or just last 20. Can you figure out which numbers they are?
Try it!
- Get sets of numbers which repeat themselves. EXAMPLE: What is the BEST
SET OF THREE NUMBERS since Lotto 6/49 (CANADA) started? Do not try to do
this manually! It takes 3 hours for the computer. In 317 draws there
were three sets: 11,19,25 - 9,11,46 and 27,44,47. Each drawn 5 times.
What is the BEST COUPLE of numbers? For Lotto 6/49 it is 27,44 drawn 13
times for the same time period. The SECOND BEST COUPLE are several sets
drawn 11 times. What is the BEST COUPLE for the last 50 draws? You can
find out for yourself using the program.
- The program does not enter new winning numbers for you. You HAVE TO DO
THIS after each draw to keep your software "up-to-date". Even your 8
years old son can do it for you. It's easy, user friendly, menu driven.
- Want to see how the list of HOT numbers looked 10,20 or 50 draws back?
PUT yourself into HISTORY MODE and get reports printed. Compare them with
the current ones!
- To pick out your numbers for the coming draw. Use PC-LOTTO QUICKPICK
and pick them out from the HOT LIST or from the COLD list. Tell the
computer: "I want to use the first 20 numbers from the HOT list made
from the last 25 draws. Pick out 4 numbers from those and two numbers
at random from all 49 numbers (you need six numbers for Lotto 6/49)
Use this system for 10 tickets!". It takes few seconds of computer time
to make the list, sort it, pick numbers from the designated areas and
print all 10 tickets. There is an endless number of combinations you can
choose. You can design your system and find out if it works, just "on
paper" first. If you put yourself into HISTORY MODE, let's say back 5
draws, then all the numbers you picked will be checked against those 5
draws which the program did not see when picking out numbers. If there
was a prize it would be printed automatically. If some system works "on
paper" then try it for real!
- The Number Wheeling Systems - from 2 tickets (12 numbers wheeled) up to
300 tickets.
If all six numbers drawn are among those you picked then there is a
guarantee of winning. It is a must for Group Playing. There is an
option to get multiple printouts. In the History Mode all numbers are
checked "forward" and all prizes are printed. This is very handy for
finding "the best system".

(batch file included - type INSTHD <ENTER> from drive A:) or
(Assumed that C: is a Hard Disk.) FOLLOW 3 STEPS:
1)
Create a new subdirectory, type from the root directory (DOS PROMPT) C:>
MD PCL <ENTER>
2) Change directory to the new one (just created) by typing:
CD PCL <ENTER>
3) Make a new subdirectory for storing Wheeling tables
MD TABLES <ENTER>
4) Insert PC_LOTTO disk in the drive A: and TYPE this:
COPY A:*.* C:\PCL <ENTER>
5) Transfer all Wheeling Tables to the Hard disk by typing:
COPY A:\TABLES\*.* c:\PCL\TABLES <ENTER>
YOU JUST INSTALLED PC-LOTTO PROGRAMS ON THE HARD DISK. TYPE:
PCLOTTO <ENTER>
to start the program. GOOD LUCK FROM LOTTOWARE.
ENTER A NEW WHEELING TABLE.
Now you have an ability to collect wheeling tables from different sources.
Here is a very small wheeling table for 8 numbers combined on 2 tickets.
It is for a LOTTO systems based on 6 numbers on a ticket. If all six
winning numbers are in our 8 numbers wheeled then the minimum assurance
is 4 number matching on one ticket. As you can see the system is inexpensive.
Enter this table using subprogram " <A>dd a new table " .
If you do not want this table on the disk, remove it later by deleting
the filename from subdirectory TABLES. (using DOS commands)
A Wheeling Table for 8 numbers on 2 tickets. (4if6)
1) 1 2 3 4 5 6 2) 3 4 5 6 7 8
Start the program - choose a LOTTO based on 6 numbers (FL 6/49 for example.)
press <T> to get into TABLES AND COMBINATIONS - press <4> to get into
WHEELING TABLES. It takes few seconds to sort all Wheeling Tables on
the disk. Press <A> from the command line at the bottom to <A>dd a new
table to the disk. Are you ready? Press <Y> for YES.
Now you have to make up a name of the file. Any name will do but try to
keep some system for additional wheeling tables. You should be able to tell
if the file is for 5,6 or 7 number LOTTO. (8 char. max) Example: FRED6001
If there is a file of the same name the program asks permission to overwrite.
The next task is to name the system, so that you can recognize it on the
MENU.(20 characters allowed)
How many numbers wheeled? Enter 8
How many tickets? Enter 2
How many numbers played on one ticket? Enter 6, we are in 6 number LOTTO!
Enter all six numbers on the first ticket and enter the second ticket just
as well.
If no mistake was made then enter <Y> for YES, put the file on the disk.
You just created an additional Wheeling Table File. It appears on the MENU
the next time (in sorted order by number of tickets).
HOW TO TRANSFER WHEELING TABLES FROM SOME OTHER SOFTWARE PROGRAMS.
EXAMPLE: We have a system to wheel 20 numbers on 50 tickets.(5 number LOTTO)
- enter numbers from 1 to 20 in consequent order. Get a printout of all
50 tickets. <A>dd the system to your PC-LOTTO program the same way as
described above.
