I have Win98SE, the problem that I had was that the DOS program needed the user to either make a or make changes to a, either a Config.Sys file or to an AutoExe.Bat file or to both I really can't remember and back on those days, I would not had done anything like that, that it was need by the program to work. I didn't want to tinker with DOS, now-days I would do it, but not back then (maybe about 2 to 3 years ago).

As that DOS program might had been good (I don't know for sure), I do... [ More ]

Had you gone to the command prompt in WindowXP you could have installed it like you would have in DOS and created a shortcut on your desktop. Years ago Data Sulutions the company that supports Lotto Pro also supported a version of Expert Lotto which was distributed by Expert Software.

That's what I have, it's Jackpot Lottery from Expert Software and the 1999 Windows version could actually be very good at predicting lottery numbers. You may be correct that what I have was made by one that no longer sells lottery products even though their site expertsoftware.com is still up.

Many years ago there used to be an American lottery software that I think that was called Lottery Expert it first was a DOS software and then Windows, it is gone now, I bought a DOS version at a used book library sale, but later trashed it as I didn't know how to install it, it was hard to install.

expert lotto version from year 1999?? i don't think we're talking about the same software here. expert lotto was first released in august 2004. so you must be using a different program (unless you have a old czech version of our software:-)

anyway googling for 'expert lotto' should take you to our web site where you can download the latest version.

Everything is relative, so long as there are working relations that are more or less stable over a given segment of draws, it does not matter where in the history are the draws' patterns that you are using as filters, it can be the last draw or any other past draw, and also more than just one draw, more often than not several past draws are to be used in this way.

hi kotss are you ready to distribute your excel yet to us that have given our e-mail?You did say that you could enter my pick 4 into the database. that would be great. Keno might be difficult because it runs all day every 4 minutes as 20/80 game.

Kotss basically yes, all I was looking for was a way to determine when any given pair in a Keno game had come in and their dates within a selected data base. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, if it just did that I'd be happy.

Hi I've got Expert Lotto but it's an older version from 1999 that doesn't support Keno. Maybe I'll have to look into the newer versions, I've always liked Expert Lotto as I consider it one of the better lottery programs out there.

You, since the very beginning did not appear to be too open to my ideas, that is why I didn't explain in detail and with examples how I filter. You was not interested in stats and not too much in other's ideas, you wanted to predict exactly in the very way in which you are tryng to right now as you told me before, as I said, without some kind of stats, there is no prediction at all.

I understand exactly what you are talking about, your approach to the filtering is about half-right or you might say half-wrong more or less, you are about half-close in what you are doing, that is why you are having trouble, half of your ideas are right or very very close the other half is off track.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the filters other than random itself, which is neither right nor wrong, your approach to filtering is about half-right more or less, you almost have it, bu... [ More ]

Hi Lantern,

back in september i started writing the code for an intelligent filter .

I never finished it, b/c i'm still writing/adjusting it all the time lol

The algorithm alone is filling several pages and grows just about every time i adjust it.

The most time, now, is spend on finding holes in the system, these holes is where it goe's wrong. There are several levels that this algorithm will handle, and the top level search finds the set of filters that will be used.

For the pick 3 and 4 daily games with preprogrammed logic guidelines it might be possible to auto and or semi-automatically filter out a source of numbers after 1 or more smart scans of a given range and or ranges of past draws. The smart scan needs to know what to look for and how to use the info in accord to given sets of preprogrammed guidines.

Hi all, I have been busy adding to my program and need to get permission from several members of LotteryPost before distributing their systems to anyone. Please bear with me and I should be getting it before the next day or two, I hope. I have added the ability to read from a text file for all systems that I can

give statistics for. Access XP is still the best option, if you have Access XP. I could give you a blank database setup for your particular state if you want.

Software like Lottery Boss Pro can read from text data and how it's setup is you go to the File Menu on the toolbar and select a main data file to load. It has the ability to create as many lottery games as you want.Actually that's what I want it for is Quick Draw in NY so that's why text would be easier since I'd just have to copy and paste the results as opposed to typing them all in.With combos it would be a matter of the program analyzing the data then determining when they came in and their...

Hi,Does anyone know of good Keno analyzing software? Basically what I'm looking for is something that can keep track not just of single numbers within the game but combos, for example 1-2 and be able to tell me the date of when that pair last came in.I downloaded Keno Expert USA but that'll only give the number of times specific combos have come in not dates and so it's not really useful. What about Gail Howard's software, would that be of any help
