I think you just have to click on the "files" tab, and there should be a link there.

those of you who have Office 2010... is this working with 2010 version?
thank you...

SOLVED: i installed OpenOffice, deleted some empty lines(because of the warning of too many rows when saving) and then i saved it as .xls Excel 2000 xp version.
and so far it's working properly with Excel 2010

Hey Josef, in the scout tab, is there anyway I could change the week of training? For example instead of being in week 5 right now, be in week 1. Is that possible?

Just open it with (http://www.OpenOffice.org) (free to use) and replace those "7"s (respectable) with any number you want. Then read the salaries, knowing the salary the game would use is the highest of the 5 numbers shown.

Also know that there is a web based calculator on (http://www.buzzer-manager.com/en/) (you need a BB Access-key: see (/prefs/profile.aspx)). It gives you the exact same results, and gives you an option for FT and Stamina which has no impact on the result. So I believe it is constructed the same way.
If however, what you want is to view the colored chart of weights, you can view a picture here: (http://imageshack.us/m/855/4256/salaryweights.png)

If anyone has any more questions, send me a BB-Mail. or use the sourceforge website.

I opened it with 2010. Explains it. As for the one on bb-manager...it doesn't calculate the deflation does it? I thought that the one you posted did and that's why I was curious to look at it. Thanks.

No, mine calculates salaries based on season 15, using Josef Ka's season 15 deflation coefficient, as does the web-based one I posted.
I have yet to find a calculator that works for S16, but I'm sure one could build one with pretty good accuracy using the new "monster/not-monster" deflation coefficients from Josef Ka.
I personally don't know how to program in an "IF, THEN" sort of way using OpenOffice, so I wouldn't be able to.

I see. Now let me ask you this. You are training a SG and JS makes his salary jump, if you trained up other skills to make him a PG, would his salary reduce as the PG's JS cost less or would the other skills trained offset the salary reduction due to the change in position? So essentially a SG trains passing and handling and ends up switching to a PG....since those two skills are basically free to a SG but costly to a PG, would the switch of position to a PG end up allowing the player to stay at the same salary, or would it reduce due to position change? OR does it vary? Very curious as I am just now getting in to this part of the game...

Hey, absolutely agree.
But I don't think my "tool" warrants a thread of its own, which is why I'm asking further questions to be asked through BB-Mail or the sourceforge website, not here.

As for the earlier question about skills costs, training a SG in passing will not increase his BB salary. However his virtual PG salary will increase and eventually will exceed his SG salary, at which point he will be listed as a PG and further passing training will cost you. You can't decrease a player's salary, but you can increase his value without altering his salary, so in a way, you could say he becomes "cheaper".
