Can i edit .Dat file???

Post by DuP »

Hi all!!!
Fisrt of all please excuse my english i usually speak french... And now the problem... I wanted to start an online league with ehm07 but i found that he's really crashy and beacause of the change lost and everything i decide to use 2005 version... But i seen that last updated rosters are like 2005 season... So now i think to myself.. Is there a way i can open .DAT files(Kind of a program...) and from there i imagine that difference between 2007 and 2005 rosters must be something like more collumn in database because of more choice in the sim... So if i can open Lydas Dat files and them just delete over data from there and save it to use on 2005.... It would be cool if they've put player copy and paste in the pre-game editor... :) Can just copy and paste them... Anyways thank you all for your help, cause i've read a lot on this forum to handle 2007 installation and league creation. And hope someone can help me...
