Thanks... added some error trapping because of errors that were happening if you ran the program on the 1st of the year.

If you get an error, restart the program and click the DEBUG button. Let me know what section it was working on when it crashed. I do not really need the rest of the information, just what section it was working on.

I added a few more tid bits, but I won't say what they are, as I do not want to spoil the surprise.

Also, make sure that you have done a CSV dump before you run the program. It will generally be ok if you don't, but if any players are added to the league or leave the league (delete players that do not make the majors), it could cause a problem if they had a history file. I am pretty sure that I have that trapped well enough to avoid any errors, but be on the safe side.

The program does NOT write the hint file until it goes through all of the functions, so if it errors, the hint file will be unchanged.

I still not found a solution to the funny character problem, but you may want to look through the setup, there is an option NOT to export the fancy characters out to the CSV files. Let me know how that works out while I attempt to find a solution to that.

Happy 4th of July.
