Next, create a data file that defines which class uses which intermediate control. Create "Class.dat" if the race style is individual race, and "RelayClass.dat" if it is relay. The first row is the header row, so add columns with "Intermediate:1" "Intermediate:2" "Intermediate:3", etc. The number of columns refer to the class that has the most intermediate controls. For example, in the example above, ME class has 3 intermediate controls so create columns until "Intermediate:3."<br/>
