New Tracker Software

[tsptalk]

Amazing job ocean! Thanks!

 

[ocean]

I encountered some problem with the new tracker database table and it may be huge. Please bear with me and I may need to go back to the original database table.

thank you for being there in the background so constantly, Ocean. We tend to take the tracker for granted and you too when it works as intended, tend to forget we owe you greatly for making sure it works.

Ocean, it seemed like I learned new words every time I designed a new spreadsheet template. I can't even imagine what it would be like to have to get a database like this bug-free and operational. We will be as patient as you need us to be, and we thank you sincerely for your hard work and expertise!

Hello Ocean,

If you are sorting on YTD 2009 it does not appear to be correct ?

Thanks Ocean for all you do and Happy New Year!

Thanks Jeff and Happy New Year.

Poolman,

The sorting routine calculation was based on the previous year balance index. It's somewhat off from the current year index. It will take some time to get it fixed but it can be done.

However, I just wanted to let all the autotracker members know that I'd informed Tom yesterday that I will be leaving the autotracker duty as my day job schedule, TDYs and among other things are taking a lot of my time and I need to take a break.

I started to design and write the autotracker 18 months ago and I'm glad that it gets this far and most of you are enjoy using it. Thanks for all the feedback, comments and supports for making it happen. The tracker is still have a lot of potential and room for improvement. I hope Tom will get a good and experience person to take over (yourself included).

I will do the fund price update tomorrow night to confirm if the new database table works correctly or not. Tom will take over the tracker duty after that. For future technical questions related to the tracker, please contact Tom or someone who will be stepping it.

Meanwhile, I enjoy being a part of the TSPTalk family for the last 3 years.

Best regards,
Ocean

Ocean, Thanks for creating the Auto Tracker.

 

[tsptalk]

The autotracker is currently down for maintenance. If you need to make a transaction for the contest, please Email (or PM) me your username and allocation changes for now. We will enter them later for you. The date and time on your email will be your timestamp.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
Tom

Is there a timeline for when the Tracker and IFT tracker will be up and running Thanks.

When Thomas Edison was asked how it was that he was able to get a light bulb to work, he said he ran out of things that didn't work.

That's where I am. I will get it going perhaps later today, maybe not until this weekend.

For now, send the emails or PM's. I'll eneter them all in once I have it working correctly.

Sorry folks.

Thank you Tom!!

BTW - any idea what happened with 350z or 12%

sometimes I just want to pick on someone and I miss them :nuts:

You're welcome Steady.

12% basically signed off saying something like, see you in a year, meaning he's stuck in stocks for the year.

I'm not sure where 350z went. He seems to leave once in a while. Perhaps it is job related or something. Maybe a vacation? Hopefully it's nothing more than that.

Sorry Tom ,

I didn't mean to come off sounding rude. I was just courious. I am working on an XL spreadsheet for SB to see how the <1% IFT's work. I would imagine the Tracker is a bit more complicated. :laugh:

 

[tsptalk]

You didn't sound rude nasa. I'm just frustrated - spinning my wheels. Just when I think I have it - I don't. I could probably use one of those rocket scientists at nasa. Know any?

Ocean's program is pretty complex. The work he put into it is unreal.

Any PHP / MySQL programmers out there need a job?

I understand your frustration Tom. I pick up on programming pretty fast. I programmed using RPGII, on a System36 then a System38. Screen's were a whole other program SDA.

I downloaded PHP and started looking at the Code and said to myself, No I don't have the time right now.

If it were me I would Hire a PHP programmer. You tell him/her what you want and they make it work under contract. They get paid final portion after program has run for 45 day's.

Just trying to Help...

 

[tsptalk]

OK, the tracker is back in working order. That is, you can enter IFT's.

As you will notice, there are still issues with the some of the accounts and I will work on them one by one. But for now, you can input your transfers again, and the returns should be OK now.

If you see any problems, let me know.

I did input the IFT's that were emailed or PM'ed to me.

Thanks for your patience, and sorry about the inconvenience.
