Section 7: Importing & Exporting
Information can be exchanged electronically from any team or conference that uses DakStats Football
by importing and exporting game files. This will eliminate the need to enter rosters or statistics that
have already been entered into the DakStats Football software. It is also possible to import
information to and from certain third-party scoring software.
Note: When importing or exporting, right-click a game
to see the score and start time for that game (Figure 47).
This makes games easier to identify when importing
and for conference offices.
