Once you've downloaded the file, a file called lgfiles.zip should appear in the folder you downloaded the file to. Double click on the file and Stuffit Expander or your zip program should decompress the file. After the file has been decompressed you'll see a folder called lgfiles.Within this lgfile folder are four folders: rosters, stats, 2003 wl and 2003 EL (note, if the files are an updated release, which usually happens on a Monday, instead of a stats release, you'll only see the rosters and stat folders within the lgfile folder).

• ROSTERS/STAT FILE INSTRUCTIONS: Open the rosters folder and select all files and move them into the rosters folder found within your CD ROM V8 folder. If you get a message that asks if you want to replace the files with the same name, choose ok. Now open up the stats folder and select all files and move them into the stats folder found within your CD ROM V8 folder. Once again If you get a message that asks if you want to replace the files with the same name, choose ok. Then just open up the game, and the 2003 Eastern League and the 2003 Western League should appear in the league column of the managers window.
• BOXSCORE/PLAY ACCOUNT INSTRUCTIONS: The 2003 WL folder contains all the boxscores(BOX) and play account (PAC) files for the WL, and the 2003 EL folder contains all BOX and PAC files for the EL. Boxscores (BOX) and play accounts (PAC) are numbered chronologically by when the game was played within the week. So if you want to view a game that was the third game played in the first day of the week, you take the smallest number and go up two. For example in week 1, the thrd game on the first day would have a boxscore name of BOX0003 and the play account would be PAC0003.
• TO VIEW THE BOX/PAC FILES: To view BOX and PAC files from the V7 game move either or both 2003 WL and 2003 EL folders into your print folder within your CD ROM V8 folder. SOM now creates separate folders for each leagues boxscores, so you no longer need to remove files from within the folders I send in order to view them within SOM. Open up the game and under the file menu choose view prt files. An open window dialog box will appear. Find the 2003 WL or 2003 EL folder that you placed in the print folder within the V8 folder and open it up.Then just select a box or pac file to view either a boxscore or play account. You can also view the box/pac files via your favorite text application. Just open up the text application of your choice, then go to file-open, make sure it's set to show all files and then find the box or pac file you want to open within the 2003 EL or 2003 WL file. If the text isn't lining up correctly, select all text and choose a font like courier or Monaco/size 10 or 9

WHAT ARE THE ASBL ROSTER FILES? If you are wondering what's the difference between the 2003 ASBL league files and the 2003 EL/WL league files, here's a brief explanation: The 2003 ASBL league files contain all players on your roster. This includes uncarded players (see uncarded rules 5h and 6h for info on uncarded availability) and players who do not have the minimum amount of appearances to be eligible to play (see rule 3a for more info on a player's minimum eligibility to play). As opposed to the 2003 EL/WL league files that only contain on your roster the players that are eligible to play. Also, the 2003 ASBL league files show a player's actual major league apperances from the previous season while the 2003 EL/WL league files have been adjusted by 130% to reflect the maximum usage a player can have during the regular season. And lastly, league games will never be played with the ASBL league files.
