To use the template files:

download the files from the MCSL website to any directory.

double click on the mm-zips04.zip file and a window will pop up showing the contents of the 
zipped template file.

```
click the 'extract' menu item.
```

Select the c:\swmeets directory and extract the files.

Repeat the above 3 steps for the tm_zips.zip file and extract the contents to the
c:\TMIIdata directory.

The template files (mm-zips03.zip & tm_zips.zip) contain the following files:

	- week-x-2004.mdb	there are 5 of these files. These files are
				meet manager databases for each of the dual meets.
	- DivRelay04.mdb	this is the meet manager database for relays
	- Divisionals2004.mdb	this is the meet manager database for divisionals
	- mcsl04-s.rec	        this file contains the current MCSL records that
				can be imported into a meet manager database.  The
				above meet manager databases already contain these
				records, so you typically will not need this file.
	- MMmmddyy.HYV		there are 6 of these files.  These are event files
				that you should import into your Team Manager 
				database which will create meets in your database 
				for each of the dual meets & divisionals.
				You will use these meets defined in your Team Manager II
				database in order to create entries for those meets.

MDB Files

The .mdb files are the Windows Meet Manager databases that you will use for each of 
dual meets, relays and divisionals.  You should start with these files when you are 
the hosting team and are setting up meet manager for the meet.

HYV files

This year there is not a template Team Manager database that a team will start with for
the season.  Instead you should do the following to setup your Team Manager for the new 
season:

```
Create a new Team Manager II database
```

Export your swimmers & best times (if desired) from last year's database

Import the swimmers/times into the new database

The .HYV files should then be imported into the new Team Manager II database.

Do this by selecting 'file->import->meet events'.

Choose 'c:\TMIIdata' (where you extracted the files).

Select one of the .HYV files and click OK.

The meet will be imported and all of the events for the meet defined.

```
Repeat the above for all 6 files.
```
