2. Enter the directory that �Computerised Carnival� is installed in.
3. Enter �pristine data�.
4. Backup the carnival directory that you want to add events to (either athletics or swimming)
5. Enter the directory that you wish to add events to.
6. Hold down Shift, and Right-Click on �events.dat�. (Sometimes, only �events� will show.) Choose �Open with other program�.
7. Scroll down the list, choose Notepad and click open.
8. In Notepad, you will see something like this:

200m

400m

800m

1500m

Shotput1

High Jump1

Long Jump1

Discus1

Javelin1

Triple Jump1

Relay

�12� means the number of events below. An event that ends in �1�, like �Shotput1� is a distance event. Everything else is a timed event. Add the events to it in the order that you wish, remembering to add a �1� to distance events. Then, update the number at the top, changing it to the number of events below.

9. Save and exit.

10. Open �Computerised Carnival� again, and set up a new carnival of the type that you edited. The events will be added to the list.
