2019 Update - Tab Sheet Sweeps overhaul

I've recently added a feature to the Tabs sheet which changes the way you figure Sweeps. 
You can now select to figure sweeps using 3 options:
  • Everyone - This option counts each and every contestant into sweeps. If you select this option you can still manually deselect a participant by deleting the 'x' from the sweeps column (column c) on the event sheet. 
  • A & B - This option only counts the A and B contestants from each team. You can still manually select or deselect participants by alternatively placing an 'x' in the sweeps column or deleting the 'x' from the sweeps column on the event sheet.
  • Top Performers - This option allows you to select a number of contestants per team that are to be counted. The system identifies the top scorers on each team and adds them together. This option CAN NOT BE MANUALLY CHANGED. The system prgramatically figures this each time you select the option, so it can be updated many times - but it ignores the sweeps column, so manual disqualification is impossible through the sweeps column - though you can simply delete out the score to keep it from figuring in. 
The new method to running the Sweeps report is similar to the old method - you simply click "Tab" then "Sweeps."  Now, though, you will be prompted to select a sweeps method. If you select "Top Performers" you will need to input the number of competitors counted for each team. 

As always - please let me know if you run into any problems!
