    Just What Is The .PRV File?                         FILE: AP.HLP 
                                                                            
    The PRV file is an ASCII collection of values that is used to give 
    you a  quick indicator of how a current period compares to a 
    previous.  If this  file is not available, DBK does not print the 
    comparitive values.         
                                                                            
    At the end of each summary period, DBK will ask if you want the .PRV 
    file to be written.  If you answer Yes, certain summary totals will 
    be stored  in a .PRV file that will then be read for each subsequent 
    period summary. These .PRV values will be printed underneath the 
    totals for the current   period so the variance can be easily 
    obtained.  With this, you should know immediately whether or not 
    your game is going in the right direction.     
                                                                            
    This type of information is also important if you are trying to 
    determine the efficiency of a changed swing, new grip, stance, club 
    etc.            
                                                                            
    Any period summary can be used for the .PRV values.  You could for 
    example combine all previous months .GLF (result) files to represent 
    the entire   season.  Then, your current report would reflect 
    current vs. year-to-date. 
                                                                           
    If you just keep season stats, rather than month to month, the .PRV 
    file could be the previous seasons performance.
