DerbyDMV Software Version 3.0 Released

Post by gpraceman »

DerbDMV™ Version 3.0 has just been released! Several new features have been added along with many improvements to make the software easier to use and more versatile.

To find out more, please visit GrandPrix Software Central's DerbyDMV page at http://grandprix-software-central.com/derbydmv/.

Here's a summary of what's new:

Photos
+ Improved photo quality when taking snapshots directly from a web cam or video camera.
+ When taking snapshots directly from a web cam or video camera, a full-sized snapshot will be saved and then an optimum sized one will be created (if necessary). This allows you to use the full-sized photos for other purposes, like a slideshow or photo gallery.

Racer Data Entry
+ Added the ability to import racer data directly from a GrandPrix Race Manager data file. You no longer have to first export the data from GrandPrix Race Manager.
+ Added a generic import ability, so you can import data that has been exported from a variety of other software packages that maintain your racer information (pack or club management software, spreadsheets, databases, etc).
+ Improved the file import to ignore racers that have already been imported. You can add data to your original import file and then be able to re-import it with no problem.
+ Improved the undo capability and added redo capability.
+ Added an auto save capability when leaving a row of data.
+ When data is saved, the last used record will be re-selected and current sorting will be maintained.

Pit Passes
+ Added the ability to create pit passes to identify your race crew members or for racers to wear during the race.
+ Pit passes can be worn around the neck during the race. Use commercially available name badge holders and lanyards or simply laminate the passes, punch a hole and use a loop of string.
+ Enter your race crew and their job position. The job position field is customizable, so you can use it for other information.
+ If used for racers, all the same information that can be displayed on a driver's license can also be displayed on a pit pass.
+ Print the pit passes to standard name badge paper (Avery template 5390 or equivalent). The paper is perforated for easy separation of the pit passes.

Driver's Test Entry
+ Improved the undo capability and added redo capability.
+ Added an auto save capability when leaving a row of data.
+ When data is saved, the last used record will be re-selected and current sorting will be maintained.
+ Improved the file import to ignore racers that have already been imported. You can add data to your original import file and be able to re-import it with no problem.

Reports
+ Added a Race Crew report to list out the race crew and their information.
+ Added a Pit Pass report for race crew and one for racers.

General
+ Added support for Windows 7.
