Database/CSV Questions

Hello.

I'm making a utility to create fictional player photos and I'm looking for some help with some of the database stuff.

First, a quick qeustion. In the "players" table, what does the "status" field mean? I am assuming this has somthing to do with active/retired, but I'm not 100% sure. The values are integers, 1-6.

Second issue: I'm developing using Lazarus/FreePascal, and it's raising an error when I try to load the "players.csv" and "parks.csv" files into a table. It's working fine with all of the other CSV files I've tried (nations, divisions, etc.), so I'm not sure if this is a Lazarus error or a problem with the CSV dump. If anyone could help me out, that would much appreciated.

Cheers,
Devin

Not much help for you I'm sure, but the SQL dump of the players works fine and I know others are using the players.csv file in their apps, so I imagine your troubles are related to the tools you are using and not the players.csv file.

I was worried that might be the case. Oh well... looks like back to the drawing board for me.
