This document describes a way to import competitor’s data into <strong>MacFinish</strong> files by using simple text files.<br />

<strong>MacFinish</strong> software. One method is by using a LIVE serial or ethernet BIDIRECTIONAL link to a MeetManager<br />

be described later in this document.<br />
