ASCII Comma separates each field Character fields are enclosed in " "
November, 1997 Updated to include Registered Holstein Ancestry (RHA)

Updated to include TriStar Production Records programs and data collection ratings.

(PRM = Premier, DLX = Deluxe, CST = Custom)

Updated stud codes to represent NNNCCNNNNN - two character breed code.
August, 1998 Replaced both Milk and Protein Reliability with Yield Reliability
September, 1998 Updated Registration Number fields to be zero filled.

Updated YY to YYYY in preparation for the year 2000.
January, 2000 Inserted NM$, PL and SCS for Subject Cow, Sire and Dam

Changed the TriStar labels to be *** = Premier, ** = Deluxe and * = Custom

Updated the zip code to incorporate format nnnnn-nnnn

July, 2000 Increased NM$ from 4 bytes to 5 bytes
Added Crude Protein to all production records
February, 2005
 Added Dairy Form, Daughter Pregnancy Rate and Daughter Calving Ease for Subject Cow, Sire and Dam.
Added Date of Classification for Cow and Dam.


1. Improved Major Breakdowns implemented on December 1, 2004. New breakdowns are Front End / Capacity; Dairy Strength; Rump; Feet & Legs; and Udder. Prior to this date, Major Breakdowns were Frame, Dairy Character; Body Capacity; Feet & Legs; and Udder.

2. If Feet and Legs field is blank, then cow was scored prior to May, 1993 using the four major breakdown system.
    If this is the case, interpret Front End / Capacity as General Appearance.
