New Utility - Ratings Comparer

Here is a new utility (with a screen shot) I wrote that compares the ratings/talent increases/decreases for players from one sim to another. It uses CommishJoe's OOTP6 exporter. You just point it at two seperate league folders and it compares the rating difference for players between the two sims. The file includes a readme.txt to help you with the process.

I'd be happy with any feed back the community has for changes and enhancements.

Enjoy!

Code:
-----Readme.txt-----
Install
You can install this application where ever you find most convenient.

The application uses the .NET 1.1 framework.  
If you don't have it get it (and other updates) at:
http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp.

This application also comes with files from CommishJoe's OOTP6 exporter.

Running the Application
- In the first text box select the the league folder you want to use as your starting point.  You can browse for the folder by clicking the small button to the right of the next box.

- In the same way select the league folder you want to use as your end point, usually this is the most update league folder.

- Hit the generate button.  The export will parse the the files and set up the dataset.

- A new screen appear.  Select the team for which you are interested in see the changes.

- Click the check boxes to select what areas want to view.

- That's it!

Version 1.0 notes
- Right now the application is filtering soley of the PlayerID.  If you are comparing leagues folders not from the same season you may see some radical jumps or drops in rates for rookies.

- Fielding rating are currently not included.

- Make sure the league folders are from the same league.  The application will self-destruct if the aren't! ;)
