There is a summary window that you can display under the windows tab. I
think that all functions are active in the rookie version, just not
upgradable so that is all you gain. Use it for a year or two to get the
feel for it, then upgrade. I try to buy the new version every year just to
keep up to date and keep the guys financed so they will keep at it. However
I will never do more than scratch the surface of what the software will do.
The cabrillo file takes care of all the scoring stuff. Although I believe
the submitted score is not used.
