Hello everyone,

I am looking for something that allows me to open a Bris form in excel so that I can sort a few things. I had several older Sartin programs a wrote some stuff in excel back when. I am interested in dusting things off, but also don’t really want to start over. Looking for a simple excel program that will open Bris. AllData @raybo may be too much brain power for me at this point. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Dave

Just be aware that BRIS data files have 1435 data elements per horse. Just mapping the elements to know what you're pointing at is a task in itself.

You might want to take a look at this https://alldataexcel.weebly.com/ I believe that it was written in an early version of excel which did not allow 1435 columns so it can be a bit challenging finding what you are looking for. It is a good place to start.

Ok thanks for the responses. I am ok not using bris files if that matters. Obviously, using rdss I am fine with trackmaster or other recommendations. I am in no way trying to replace rdss, and have tried a ton of different programs. There is nothing in my opinion that compares to rdss. I am really just trying to build a couple of different formulas so that I can play with various loosely defined probabilities. Basically, I don't want to have to manually input all of the data if possible once I build the formulas.
