Today I had some courses in the list to download. When downloading Sand Hill the file name is sandhills-beta .zip Not sure if this is the wrong link or simply the file name wasn't changed. Short Info would be appreciated :)

Same with Viper Flats and Blue Marlin Resort...

these courses where recently brought out of beta and Mark needs to get caught with
the new library pics. and the other adjustments he needs to make to them.
some of them that has beta in the name may have to remain that way like Viper Flats as the designer
has lost the files and can not update the title.

as for sand hills the designer is away from the computer with the work on it so it will remain saying beta in the name but it is out of beta
if a course does not say beta on the Library pic then it is out of beta in other words

Thanks alot for the Info Dave :)

Thanks Mark for all your hard work both on this, and all the other behind the scenes work - much appreciated.

Great utility for keeping the course library up to date.

I'm pleased to announce the release of version 1.12 of the PGLS PG Courses Checker is now available, the link to which you will find here ...

Now for me my new version has thrown up some interesting courses that we don't have in the PGLS Courses databases but are valid courses, amongst them are 2 courses by Matthew Rose ...

Well all I did was check that there was a newer version of a course before deleting the folder, which is the primary reason for the updated version of my utility.

Obviously this means it will also pick up courses we don't have any use for as well so there is no reason to delete them.

Not a big deal but is it difficult to add some sort of notification to the course checker software that there is a new version of the course checker software available?

In hindsight yes it would of been an idea to add it. However this is likely to be the last version unless bugs materialise.
