I just uploaded the latest version. I suggest an uninstall and then install the new one.

www.sim2005.com/oop1.htm

I made the interface a little easier to understand.

Steps to follow: (Generate league files from the OOTP program first)

Install program - Run program, click on CONFIG and change the settings to point to your league. Click on UTILITIES, then click on INDEX PLAYERS. Then click on INDEX ALMANAC. PUT 1000 IN THE FIELD CALLED # RETIRED or the program will die. No need to click on NEW SEASON.

You are now set to use the program. After the next season, after you click on PROCEED to next season, you can then just click on NEW SEASON and it will copy over the retired players automatically.

I would wait until the new season is already to start, after spring training or it will not be complete. You can always RE-INDEX the almanac at any time, but you will need to delete all of the p####.html files in the 'RETIRED PLAYERS' folder. These were all generated by my program, so it does not hurt your league at all. I will have the program delete them next version.

When running the Index Almanac for the first time, use the first date of the season and any date after the current season. So, if the season started in 1920 and you are ready to play season 1930, enter 1920 and 1930 (or higher, it won't hurt) in the boxes.
