Some of the changes:
➢ Integrated Help System - context sensitive on may windows.
➢ Web Help - Compiled help (above) cannot function over a network, so web help is available from the Help menu. Click here to use it.

ST2100 compatibility
To accommodate the changes to lanes and the lower age limit we have stolen 7 characters from the Other Info field of the program of events. In ST2100 each event could have 35 characters of other information. In ST2200, this is reduced to 28 characters.
