Install the Database software. You must have Interbase database management software installed on the machine running ASE Scorer 8. Download from here. For further information on database software see the Interbase information here.

Install the ASE Scorer latest release. Download from here.
Run the program and follow the prompts and using the default values when in doubt.

The first time you start up the scorer, you will be asked to set the first time options.

Set the path to the masterfile folder. This is the path to the folder (directory) where you will place your club members database.

Enter registration details (optional). Enter the ID and key that you obtain when you register. These will be sent by email and can be copied and pasted from the email text. If you don't have them yet just click cancel and they can be entered again later using the System/register menu item at any time.

After registration the Australian users that have received the additional ABF files will be asked if they want to set up a list of all the ABF players. You will then be asked to set the system default values. Change these if you like, using the help file to guide you through this process. Any doubts, leave them as they are and change them at a later time.

Next you are asked to make a members masterfile. This is optional but it is recommended that you make a file now. Follow the prompts and use the help file for more details.

The Australian users with the additional files will have the option of including their full club membership in this new members' masterfile. Simply enter your club number to get the right members, or use the search club list option if you do not know the number.

See the installation help file for more details.
