I also wrote a function that digs through all the players' history files and finds the year in which they retired.
I have a function that updates whether or not a player is even eligible for the HOF after their 5 year waiting period is up (needs a certain amount of PA's or IP for pitchers to even show up..anything less than that, I'm just wasting my time looking through their stats).
I also made my own forms to view total career stats for hitters and pitchers (dressed it up a little) as well as a form to view year by year stats for hitters and pitchers.
I came across a little problem with one of my functions with some of the recordsets coming up empty b/c if a player never won a certain award, the field would be null..I wrote a function to fill those NULLs with 0's to make it easier to work with.
I also made a separate form for hitters and pitchers that doesn't have any records at all in the awards table just for them b/c I list the total of each award that the player has won and if it didn't find any record in the awards table, the form would come up blank.
But as for me to distribute it, that would totally be up to Tysok..I mean he is the man who made the program and came up with the idea, all I did was customize it a little to my needs. But if he gives permission, I don't have a problem uploading it. On the career stats form, I do have a lable that comes up if that player is in the HOF that says 'LSBL Hall of Famer'...you might want to change that to match your own league..lol

Wow... I usually ignore this section because I don't really do anything outside the game, just this one.
I don't mind if someone wants to use your modifications, I'll even take a look at it and see about incorporating it into mine.
I'm trying to make it better, but my ability to code isn't quite up to standards.
I tend to learn from taking apart one that works and then building mine in the same manner, and haven't found anything I can take apart... so I'm trying to learn through books which sucks, especially when the book sucks.
Anyhow, distribute yours too, I'm curious to see what you've done.
