To user the database, club and runner database must be activated, see MeOS Features.
Click Runner Database on the page Competition. This shows a set of functions.

- The tables Persons and Clubs shows the corresponding tables. If there are many persons in the database, it may take a few seconds to open. You can click + on a person to enter that person into the current competition. For a person already in the competition, you see the class instead of a +.
- Import lets you import new data from a file. You can provide a file with clubs and a file with runners. Optionally, you can choose to Clear databases, which means that the current databases are emptied before the import.
To install a database, it must be in the IOF-XML format (version 2.0.4 or 3.0). The installed database is automatically updated from the competitions you organize; MeOS learns who runs with which card, to automatically make a guess next time. - Update uses the Eventor connection, to automatically update the database. A connection to the Internet is required.
- Export lets you export the current database and all MeOS settings to a specified folder, for example on a USB stick.
To import these settings on another computer, close all competitions in MeOS, select Settings, browse and select the same folder again and the click Import. - Export clubs and Export persons lets you export the club and persons databases, respectively, to a file in IOX-XML 3.0 format.
- Clear Database clears both persons and clubs.
- Return takes you back to the page Competition

If you are using a network connection, all computers connected to the network will automatically use the same database, which is the one on the computer that uploaded the competition to the server (each server competition has its own database). It is possible to update the server database by importing the database when you have opened the competition on the server, see Using MeOS in a Network.
