New grades on online database

Please could the new grades be displayed fully on the online database. Why? Because people are beginning to discuss grade boudnaries for next year's tournaments. I'd be interested to know, for instance, which Surrey players would be graded below 100 for the U100 tournament if the grade boundaries were not changed. So I would like to list all SCCA players (as shown by http://grading.bcfservices.org.uk/getco ... rrey%20CCA) and then order in new long play grade order.

Thanks

Hmm, that is work but I will consider it when free time permits...

Couldn't you just download the list and do it yourself? Or ask your local grader who has the master file to do it?

In the downloaded excel file the club name can be in one of six columns so the filter is not quite so easy to apply. Also I find the online database interface very nice to use. I can see lots of people during the year wanting to know what a new grade limit would imply for their team as they come up to leage AGMs where new grade limits are being discussed.

Point taken.
Would it be possible to have a 'new grade' interface which was identical to the existing one but picked up the new long play/rapidplay grade rather than the old style ones?

Takes about 5 seconds using MS Access! Tell me your club name and I'll produce the file for you.
