I don't mean to sound ungrateful, I'm simply trying to do a little "beta testing".

I'm using myhands from this URL:

http://online.bridge...hands/index.php

I've noticed that when you select the "Interval direction: Forward" then either hands disappear from the output or the resulting output is not sorted in the proper order.

This new version of myhands is looking really goooooood. Thanks to those doing the work.

Hi,

I don't want this sound too simplified, you are probably doing it right, but I just want to make sure.

The default date is the current day. So if you change to "foward" that means show all hands from today foward (meaning tomorrow, and on into next week/month). Of course Geraldo is good, but progamming it to play hands you haven't played yet is, well, beyond even his ability.

Ok if you were to back up some time... say to january 22, 2005, and ask it to look forward one month, the system looks for all hands between jan 22 and feb 22. Such a such on your name shows all the hand you played on the system (you played on the 22nd, 24, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, of january, and then Feb 1-3 before taking a week off, returning on the 9th (have a nice trip?), and played nearly every day after that. It seems to display in the "correct order" of oldest date to newest date. That is to say, I have been unable to reproduce any problem with sorting.

If on the other hand, you wanted to look back a month from Jan 22, you would change the date to jan 22 2005, and choose backwards. Now the range examined would be Nov 22 to Jan 22 and would in theory show all hand in that range. The problem is the stored data does not go back that far.

Thanks for the explanation Ben. That is what's happening and it appears to be working correctly.

I would like to request one additional reporting feature: the option to sort the output by date either most recent first (descending by date) or most recent last (ascending by date).
