American Baseball Association

I have been messing around with creating a fictional league with real MLB players. The league is a 12 team league which will expand as the seasons go on. I have essentially what I want done for the rules, names, etc., with the exception of the stadiums.

What I want to be able to do is import an MLB roster set into the league for the inaugural draft and also looking for someone to help me set up a random debut database for the amateur draft. I run a PPC Mac so I am unable to use MS Access.

The league file is included below. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to use the league file for your own league as well. If you do and want more expansion teams(w/ logos) that I have lined up, let me know and I'll send them to you. Thanks!

Send big files the easy way. Files too large for email attachments? No problem!

If anyone could tell me what I'd have to do to alter the random database for 12 teams and such, I'll find a computer with Access to do it on. Someone has to know how to do this. Please?

I believe it should be possible to do this using mysql, based upon looking at the database export/import settings.

Are there instructions for how to do what you want to do on Access? If so, I can work on adapting them to something you can use on the Mac. (Which I have an interest in, since I'm a fellow Mac user.

)

The Random Debut Database Generator is available for download here...

All Sim Baseball

It includes a readme that has the steps on what to do. Not having the ability to run Access, I couldn't tell you what the steps are in Access other than you have to run three macros. Any help though towards getting a Mac-friendly solution together would be great though!
