    Deleting Boats / Colored Marks

    Is it possible to delete more than 1 boat at a time from the tracking schedule? 

    I can select more than 1 boat.  But the delete key still only removes one.

    Is it possible to change the color of a mark?

    It seems you can only delete one boat. That is easy to change.

    Mark colours are fixed.

    it's easy to edit the boat and sched tables in MS Access 
    I usually just start with empty tables for each race

    If you're talking about the Sail Tab/Boat List
    Click 1st Boat number
    Hold Shift down click last boat number
    Click Delete
    When the Delete Warning Window pops up with Yes hi-litHold down the Enter key

    ok.  Now a related question.  (Don't laugh) Is there a way to reload all the tracking schedules I just deleted as well.  I thought I could reload the boat ids and the tracks would stay.  But all is now gone.  All of the position reports are in the data directory but when I go to import them I just get a "Unable to open boat id file" error.

    That is why I have tried to avoid having functions to delete database items. The position reports are all linked to the database boats.

    ​If you have Exp archiving settings, previous versions of the selected database should be saved to the Archive folder.
