First back up your league. Maybe even two backups!

Second, exit the game.

Third, delete all the messages in the "your league.lg\messages" folder.

Fourth, delete the messages.dat file in "your league.lg" folder. You must do this because the next time you open the game it will regenerate all of the deleted messages.

Fifth, open the game and your league. As the game boots the messages.dat file will be rebuilt. All messages will be gone.


For anyone else who is interested you can delete box score, game log replays and messages from any league via a batch file. See below.



Take the text above, copy and paste into a text editor. Save as boxlogdelete.bat in "your league.lg" folder (where all the dat files are). The extension must be .bat for it to work. Double click on it and it will do the job.

Use at your own risk and back up your league file before doing anything.

Thank you for your great help.

Much appreciated.
