I have recently gotten back to playing Bridge after about 15 years and went to a club for the first time this week.

I was very impressed by the electronic scoring they used and it made me think that there must now be some kind of a good electronic way to store my individual results each week instead of filling up pages in a duplicate logbook.

I have gone through the software lists but can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for. I'd just like to be able to track the same kind of info that is on the scoresheet, but electronically - filling in my MP for each hand, etc. Of course I could just build my own in Excel but it seems like there should be a product out there that allows me to track my own results.
Suggestions?

Welcome back.

You do not say where you play, but if you play in the EBU your individual sessions' scores are recorded and can be accessed on the EBU website. Nit doen to individual hands however.

Some clubs provide all that information for you online - every result you scored on every hand, plus all the other results at other tables, hand records etc. See, for example, http://www.wimbledonbridgeclub.co.uk/ and looks at one of the "results" links. This is all generated automatically by software that a lot of English clubs use.

To clarify my original question:
The club I'm playing at does post the results, hands, etc. online - so I can get them easily.
I'm looking for software I can use to keep the results as a "personal history"- so I can see how many more tops I get as I improve, etc.
Thanks so much!

If you're in the ACBL arena, many clubs post their complete results here:

Pianola gives you this sort of thing, but the catch is that the clubs
you play at have to take up their service in order for you to use it (I
don't think individuals can sign up).

Kyra: Check out this link: https://highdesertbridge.com/learn-about-the-bridge-record. The electronic scoring (and presumably the results email sent to you after each game), along with the hand records shows you results. The Bridge Record logbook shows you how you or your opponents got to that contract and result.
