Leaderboard in Tournament Achive ? No longer a .lin file

I hope that I am in the correct Forum

When I look up the tournament archive (in the myhands archive) there is a column with a link to the "leaderboard".

That link used to be to a .lin file which I could download and keep for permanent reference purposes.

Within the last few days, that link has been changed to point to a .htm file which, when downloaded, loses all its formating.

I suspect that if I save the pointer (either to the archive file or to the leadership file) that will shortly fail as the archives are cleared out.

The .lin file was very suitable for my purposes, the .htm file is not very good for me at all.

1. Is this change permanent?
2. Are the .lin files otherwise available from some other source?

Did you see the first item in BBO News, titled "FYI - Myhands tweaks"?

1. The change is permanent ( will supply reasons if anyone cares )
2. The lin files are available for a few more weeks, then we're going to move machines and they'll be gone for good.

However, we have all the information; the lin files are just reports in a specific format.

Drop me an email - uday@ - ( bridgebase.com ) and let me know what you needed from the LIN files. I'm fairly sure we can find another way to get you what you need
