please help with database woes!

Post by thehab »

ive recently encountered a problem with my database that ive been editing. when i try and load the database with the pre-game editor, it loads a previous version,which i think may be lidas' final roster update. but when i load that same database through the actual game,it is the database that ive spent hundreds of hours editing myself.for some reason,my database which ive titled "UPDATED" loads in the pre-game editor,but it actually shows lidas' database before i started tweaking it a few months ago.when i load that same "UPDATED" database to start a new game in ehm, it loads my updated database.if i load the "UPDATED" database in the pregame editor,and edit it ie. put sydney crosby on detroit red wings,and start a new game,it doesnt show in the actual game,and he remains with the pens,but if i save it,and then exit the editor,and re-load it,it will show his contract with the red wings.also,the last thing i could remember doing is releasing alex perezhogins rights from the canadiens,i did so a few nights ago,and in the game,his rights are no longer with them,which is the last thing i edited. does anybody know why this would happen,and if there is a way for me to re-load my updated database so i can finish it? also,if this info helps,when i do start a new game,and then bring it up in the save-game editor,it is correct,and displays all of my updated information......i just cant seem to get it back on the pre-game editor anymore. please give me any insight u may have,ive spent alot of time on this database,and i would hate to have to play with it 80% completed
