Does anyone know where I can get the EHM database format? It was on the official forum, but the contraction eliminated it.

How do you mean "database format" ? The hex code of the files? :-?

No I think he means the computer language format that Graeme had posted way back when. The stuff that allowed the Editors to be made.

Not much, but having developed some programing skills I thought I might find it interesting. Only noteworthy project that has come to mind are some short scripts to move everyone's birth date or draft year around as I'm under the impression that those things have been done the long way so far.

It would be truly awsome if you could create a script decreasing everyone's birth year by one. I did it manually once, and believe me, there are more fun things to do in life...
