Cato History 5.3.0 History Question

IrishKDT · 11-05-2003, 06:18 PM

I have been using the CATO History program 5.3.0 (which is very good) and have encountered a problem and hope someone can help. I have successfully loaded 3 seasons into the program with no problems. While loading the 4th season, I get an error message when attempting to "Update Player History" and receive the following error message "data provider or other service returned an E_FAIL status" I checked the player files and have not found anything that looks abnormal and also deleted the "phistory" table with still no luck. Can anyone help?

I've had this problem a few time with different leagues, The only "solution" I was able to come up with was to disable the player histories

Thats what I also did to get around the problem, but now I can not get history for any season going forward.

Has anyone else found a different work-around to this? I really don't want to disable player histories....
