I’ve been using the free Deal Generator for making deals for classes.

http://www.playbridg..._generators.php

It’s great. As is the ability to print the hands for my class.

What I’d like is a generator that gave the par score on the hands.

Does such a deal generator exist?

Thanks.

Bridge Solver is an excellent tool to give par score and more.
Maybe you could use it together with playbridge Deal Generator.
You could install bridgesolver on your PC, or you could publish the Deal Generator hands in an html page and integrate a bridgesolver replay function.

The Bridge Solver extension (used within Google Chrome) can detect bridge hands from certain sites. But, I don't think that hands from a PlayBridge page (Deal Generator) is amongst them.

Dealmaster Pro isn't that expensive. I might consider buying it. But, it would be nice if they had a trial period/version.

Thanks again.

I've only used the web version. But the help page says that the Windows version (only) can read hands from .pdf file, so it might be worth trying to print a Deal Generator hand to pdf and see.

Deal Master Pro is a powerful tool but it uses an older type interface that isn't intuitive and the creator doesn't really support the product anymore due his age.

I really wish someone would create a modern, intuitive and supported dealing machine that has the ability to deal with multiple conditions and filters.

If you want your dealing program to be able to anything beyond very simple constraints, then you need a scripting language rather than a GUI.

And, once you're in the world of scripting languages, there are any number of good options.
