The Golfwits DATA to HTML tool is available by CLICKING HERE! You can save the file anywhere you like. To make it easier to keep track of, a suggested location would be c:\program files\siscosoft\golfwitspc (assuming you elected to install Golfwits to the default directory). Once you have saved the file named gw2html.exe to your drive, simply DRAG AND DROP a golfwits data file(.gwd) from the folder called ROUNDS onto the gw2html.exe file. This will instantly create an HTML file that will appear in the ROUNDS folder. Find the file, double click on it and the HTML scorecard will open up in your default browser. From there, you have the flexibility of HTML to be as creative as you like with your round!!

Have fun and happy golfing!

FYI: Golfwits Data Files are connected to Golfwits Course Files

Golfwits data files contain the file name of the Golwits course file that created them. If you play several rounds with a course file and then rename the course file you will no longer be able to open those round files using that course because you renamed the course file. To view those round files you will need to rename the course file back to what it was originally. If you forget what the name was you can try to find it by opening a round file in Notepad and finding the spot where the course file name is located.

If you have a friend send you a round, assuming you have the map of the course that your friend played, and you cannot see the round in Golfwits, then it may be because your friend's course file is named differently than yours. Ask your friend to send you their course file and use that file to view their round.

Tip: Put four rounds in the same round file

If you find yourself using only the first golfer in your round files, try using the same file for four different rounds. That way you can compare the statistics and print a scorecard out with four different rounds on it.

If you're using a Palm size or Pocket PC you can play a round as golfer 1. The next time you go out use the same file but play your round as golfer 2. While you play the round you can switch back to golfer 1 and see how your rounds compare.

The File Combine tool in Golfwits PC is a great tool for putting together four rounds into one file. If for example you and some friends recorded rounds in different files and you want to get everyone into one file so you can compare the stats, calculate side games, or print out a scorecard, use the File Combine tool in Golfwits PC to move golfers between files. You can access the File Combine tool when on the file list screen by clicking File > Combine on the menu. Note: You cannot combine rounds played on different courses. The rounds must be recorded using the same course file.

Tip: If you're protective of your Pocket PC you can be creative in how you keep score for others using Golfwits

If others in your group want you to record their round for them but you don't want to pass your CE device around so they can record where each shot went try one of these three things:

1. Ask them their score in strokes and putts and guestimate where their shots went. You'll probably want to turn "Track clubs" off for these golfers.

2. Ask them their total score and record each stroke as a putt. You can record every putt as being in the hole if you want to show that the putt locations are invalid. The statistics will also be invalid, but their score will be correct. Note: Golfwits records up to 9 putts so if they scored greater than 9 you'll have to place shots on the map.

3. Print Pro books out for them using Golfwits PC and let them score their rounds using the Pro books. At the 19th hole they can record their round into your CE device, you could do it for them, or you could wait and record their round into your home computer when you return home.
