Extract text from Swim meet results (CL2)
To convert CL2 Meet results to another format, you need Hy-Tek MEET MANAGER or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Sports Data File" file type, you need software like Hy-Tek MEET MANAGER or a similar tool.
The .CL2 file format is primarily a Swim Meet Data Interchange file used to transfer meet results, swimmer times, and team data between different databases. It is generated by Hy-Tek MEET MANAGER, a dominant software in competitive swimming management currently owned by ACTIVE Network.
Users typically need to convert this file because the .CL2 format is highly specialized, proprietary, and difficult to read without owning an expensive software license. If a coach, swimmer, or parent receives this file, standard web browsers and standard office software cannot interpret it.
The best target formats for conversion are standard data formats like CSV or TXT to view the raw data in Microsoft Excel, or PDF to easily print and share the meet results. Converting to text-based formats may result in raw data columns that require manual cleanup and formatting.
This file format is difficult to open or convert because it uses a closed, specialized data structure. Standard online converters fail to process it because they lack the niche parsing logic required for swimming data schemas. Often, only the original Hy-Tek software can properly read or export the data into a user-friendly report. If our analysis detects unencrypted text data inside, viewing or extracting the raw results may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your CL2 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted PDF and ZIP files.
If you want to convert CL2 file to INI, CFG, CONF, CONFIG, JSON, XML, YAML, YML, TOML, ENV, PROPERTIES or RC, you can use Hy-Tek MEET MANAGER or similar software from the "Swim Meet Data Interchange" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert ZSHRC, CONF, RCFILE, GITCONFIG, RC, PLIST, BASHRC, CONFIG, PROFILE, INI, PREFS or CFG files to CL2, try Hy-Tek MEET MANAGER or another comparable tool in the "Swim Meet Data Interchange" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our CL2 converter.
