this manual.

Players can be added to teams at any time. Do not
skip any rows when entering the player names. If
you have 12 players on the team, then the first 12
rows must have names.

The player information entered with the previous
selection of this menu can be revised at any time
with this selection. First select the team. The
chart from the previous page will be displayed. You
can not delete players with this selection. Players
are deleted with another selection of this menu.

personal messages for specific individual player
reports. Messages may be up to 10 lines long. A
filename is automatically entered if one is not

player row to access a text editor. Text files are
saved on the data diskette or in the data
subdirectory. Pressing Alt-D deletes the file name
so the file will not print on the reports.

When player reports are printed, the data
subdirectory or data diskette is checked to see if a
matching ASCII file exists. If the file exists, and
the proper setting is made on the Miscellaneous
Settings Sub-Menu of the SET UP menu, the
information is included on the player report.

SuperData is another way to organize reports. For
example, if the word starter was entered for all
starting players, you would be able to print reports
for just starters. The program checks for SuperData
matches in either column when selecting players.

4-5, 4-6 PRINT OUT PLAYER NAMES - LIST/GRID
Selection 4 prints out one team. Selection 5 prints
out all teams. This selection prints out a player
list/grid with a set of boxes. The boxes will be
printed in either 10 or 12 pitch. The pitch (cpi) is
set on Miscellaneous Settings Sub-Menu of the SET UP
menu.


4-7 DELETE ALL PLAYERS/STATISTICS - ONE TEAM
All information about a team can be deleted with
this selection.

First select the number of the team. The current
team name will be displayed. Below the team name
you must enter the word DELETE.

By entering the word DELETE, all information about
the team, including all players, and all statistics
will be removed. Use this selection with great
care.

SET UP MENU

5-1 REVISE/REVIEW USER DEFINED COLUMN TITLES
Four columns have been reserved for you to keep
track of statistics important for you. For example,
minutes played could by kept in one of the columns.
When this selection is made, you can revise the name
of the column heading for the print outs. This
column will total the numbers entered for each game.

The second column provides a two letter abbreviation
to be displayed and printed. For example, Minutes
Played could use the abbreviation Mi or MP. Use the
Tab key to move back and forth between the columns.
Press ESCape when you have finished substituting
your titles. Then you can save these new headings.

5-2 CHANGE MISCELLANEOUS SETTINGS
When this selection is made, another screen of
settings is displayed. Use the up and down arrows
to move between settings. These settings further
customize BASKETBALL STATS POWER. Press the letter
Y for Yes or N for No. The program ignores settings
that do not apply to your equipment. Press ESCape
when you have finished your settings. Then you can
save these settings.

5-2-1 INCLUDE PERSONAL MESSAGE ON INDIVIDUAL REPORTS
If Yes is selected, personal messages to selected
players can be printed on the individual reports.
This message, up to ten lines long is stored in the
player directory or on the player data diskette.
The file name is listed in the ASCII text file
column of the Revise Name/SuperData/Text File chart
viewed with the NAMES MENU.

5-2-2 INCLUDE COMMON MESSAGE ON INDIVIDUAL REPORTS
If Yes is selected, the common message entered on
the RECORD MENU will be printed on all individual
player reports.

5-2-3 INCLUDE COMMON MESSAGE ON TEAM REPORTS
If Yes is selected, the common message entered on
the RECORD MENU will be printed on all team reports.

5-2-4 USE RIBBON SAVE OPTION FOR SUPPORTED PRINT OUTS
The ribbon save feature is useful when printing the
player list/grid on the NAMES MENU. If No is selected,
all 17 rows of the grid will be printed. If Yes is
selected, only one extra row is printed.

5-2-5 USE 12 PITCH FOR PRINTING BASKETBALL REPORTS
If Yes is selected, reports will be printed in 12
pitch. If No is selected, your reports will be
printed using 10 pitch (characters per inch).

5-2-6 SET YOUR PRINTER TO LETTER QUALITY
If Yes is selected, reports will be printed bold.
If No is selected, your reports will be printed
using regular draft.

5-2-7 DOES YOUR PRINTER SUPPORT LINE DRAW CHARACTERS
This setting is used to print the player list/grid.
If the wrong setting is made a series of weird or
foreign language characters are printed for the
vertical lines. If No is selected, regular
characters (dashes, the plus sign, and vertical bar)
are substituted for the line drawing characters.

For LaserJet printers, an attempt is made to use the
PC-8 character set which supports line drawing. The
default set of the LaserJet printer (Roman-8) does
not support the line drawing characters. The best
way to find the correct setting for a compatible
printer is to print a sample list/grid on the NAMES
MENU.

5-2-8 USE ONE DIRECTION PRINTING FOR PLAYER LIST/GRID
When set to Yes, the printer is set to print lines
always starting at the left side of the paper. This
makes a neater print out, but also increases the
time to print the report. This setting only affects
the lines drawn for player list/grid print outs.

5-2-9 USE LARGE SQUARES FOR PLAYER LIST/GRID
When set to Yes, a grid of ten larger squares will
be printed after the player name. If No is
selected, a set of twelve smaller squares will be
printed.

5-2-10 IGNORE CHECKING FOR PRINTER STATUS
BASKETBALL STATS POWER always checks the status of
the parallel printer port before sending any data.
This normally works quite well. You may experience
problems if you map a parallel port to a serial one
by the MODE command, or if you have a non-standard,
or very fast computer. The program might actually
think that your printer port (LPT1:) is busy when
you know it is not. If you have printer problems
like this, press Y for Yes to ignore the printer
status.

A laser printer always ignores the printer status.

5-3 CHANGING SCREEN COLORS
Screen colors may be changed to your personal
preference, or because the regular colors may be
hard to see on a lap top.

Up to 127 color combinations may be used by
BASKETBALL STATS POWER. When this selection is
made, a chart showing the 127 color combinations and
their associated numbers is displayed.

The default values for screen colors are listed
below. The first column is for color monitors. The
second column is used for monochrome monitors. You
may enter different numbers from the displayed
chart:

Color Monochrome
Normal Screen Color: 023 007
Help Screen Color: 113 007
Pull Down Menu Color: 043 112
Error Color: 079 112
Text Entry Color: 112 007
Menu Selection Color: 007 007

When you have finished entering the color numbers,
press ESCape. Then press a number for the mouse
cursor color. The (1-7) number refers to the chart
column. For example 4 represents red. Some menu
selections deliberately turn the mouse cursor off to
prevent accidental loss of data. The mouse cursor
is turned back on when appropriate. Then press Y
for Yes to save these changes.


Alt-B and Alt-C can also be used when the program
first starts to change the screen colors.

5-4 PRINTER SELECTION
The following printers are currently supported by
BASKETBALL STATS POWER. Others may have been added

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
