This program requires a lot of time to use it. First, it takes a lot of time to create the HTML reports. Of course, you could cut down the scope of the data, not do a complete dump, but I strongly forbid you to do that. You defeat the purpose of the program. If you are having a disk space problem, this program is NOT one you want to use.

It also takes quite a bit of time to have my program do it's archiving. This is the nature of having a lot of data to move. It is simply copying the data over for you. This could be done with Windows Explorer, but is subject to user error or plain "I don't know how to do that". The idea is to click one time and walk away.

If it is for a league that you are playing games out, then you do not complete a season that often, so it is well worth the time to do it. Even if you complete a season every three months, it will be worth the effort to do it. The biggest downfall is for people like me. That like to sim 5-20 years to create a history. You will have to do it one year at a time, stop on December 31st, do the archiving and move on. This will slow down creating the history big time, but, there is no other way to do it.

I am going to strongly push to making the option to automate the archiving like 6.x did. I pushed it for 2006, but it was not done. I may have to take some kittens hostage this go round.
