Generating hands with the chosen convention or the selected bid sequence

It is possible to archive the hands in several formats.

If Archive check box is checked (5), the deals that meet the selected criteria will be added to the archive file without stopping.

The archive filename consists of the date and the extension appropriate to the archive type selected from the archive chechbox pop-up menu.

To archive hands with a selected bidding sequence, enter that sequence as in example (3). The sequence must contain at least one "-" character.

For multiple combinations you can use "*" and "?" (never 1? or ?1 or *? or ?*):


By typing: ?-2*-**-*-*n you could find:


W N E      S      

                      1D

2C    2H*1   P      2N

P      3N     P      P

P


or


W      N      E      S      

P      2H     3H*1   P

3N*2   P      4C     P

P      P


To archive hands with a specific convention, select this convention as in example (3).

The archive file is overwritten with hands that meet the selected criteria. If no criteria are defined then all hands are saved.

Disabling "Double dummy" significantly speeds up loop execution.
