Windows 7: Dates

(For technicalities: go here: https://forums.codegear.com/thread.jspa?threadID=29082

If you are having problems with the date format in Scoresaver 2 running under Windows 7: do this:


- Run SS2
- Leave SS2 open then go to Control Panel, Regional Settings
- Change the format from the default (e.g. English (United Kingdom) to a different country (e.g. English (South Africa))
- Close SS2 then re-open it.
- Go back to control panel and switch it back to English (UK).
 
This is caused by Windows 7 and Delphi (which Scoresaver 2 is written in) having a small disagreement.

 

Windows 7 Compatability

We've only found one problem so far with Scoresaver 2 and Windows 7:

Regardless of your regional settings in Control Panel, SS2 displays the date format in american format (mm/dd/yyyy). We are investigating why this is happening as it is rather strange and will issue a free upgrade as soon as we can

2010 and beyond

Happy new year to all our customers. This year we plan to commence the development of Scoresaver online and to upgrade our society product.

New website for Scoresaver golf analysis software

We have always concentrated on developing the best golf analysis software to help you analyse your golf and because of that we haven't concentrated as much as we should have on the part of Scoresaver that people who don't have our golf software see, our website.

Now our new website is here and we are going to concentrate on delivering everything you need while removing anything that doesn't help you analyse your golf and lower your handicap.

Our support forums are being replaced with a more direct support method: you fill in a contact form, we receive your message and respond directly to you and then publish the question and answer in our FAQs.

We will also be updating the news section regularly to include a variety of articles and multimedia content and again this will be focussed on what helps you to use our software to analyse your golf.
