Software for Managing Olympic Weightlifting Competitions

LiftCompleteLite

Lift Complete Lite is an application for managing Olympic Weightlifting compeititons.

This application is a set of loosely linked apps developed on a base of Excel's VBA. It runs on Excel 2007 and later.

Excel's basic functions are completely replaced with a custom "Ribbon" control set.

Lift Complete Lite manages the flow of compeition from weigh in to final score sheets and medals ranking. User Manual Videos and examples are at https://vimeo.com/cwfund

This repository contains three applications, a small website, and documentation.

Lift Weigh In manages the weigh in procedure and creates competition cards and protocols. It creates a "Session" file which is stored for later access.

Lift Manager controls the compeititon and records the results. Lift Manager begins by reading the Session file created by Lift Weigh In saving a lot of typing and eliminating errors. When in Run Mode, Manager then follows the rules of weightlifting to call the next lifter in the competition to the platform.

Lift Loader is a graphical depiction of the required weights on the bar. This program shows the loaders which weights are needed for the bar to be properly loaded on the platform. Loader reads a file that is saved on the Manager system so that it automatically updates.

There is a specialized small web site that can be used to show a live scoresheet through a browser on any device connected to the same LAN.

For best results, all of these systems should be on the same LAN.

Lift Complete Lite runs on Excel 2007 and newer on Windows 7 and newer.
