How do you update Player Notes on another PC? I copied the playernotes.dat file into the right directory, but the notes aren't updated. Do you have to reboot, or is there another way to update the playernotes that are in the player pool?

Thanks

The PlayerNotes.dat file is the right one. Make sure the Draft Dominator is closed when you copy it over. Also make sure it is in the right subdirectory, should be the same as the DraftDominator.exe. After copying the notes, just start the Draft Dominator.

This could actually go in the suggestions for next year's improvements thread, but maybe there is a way to do it now. I had 2 drafts going this weekend and as I made notes for players in one league, I get the same notes for the players in the other league. I would like to keep my player notes separated between leagues. Perhaps I am not saving it right.

Essentially all the player notes are kept in a PlayerNotes.dat file. You can create one... then rename it... and then create another. Then just flip back and forth between the two files by renaming them back to PlayerNotes.dat. Either that or install the Draft Dominator to two different subdirectories. Use the DraftDominator.exe out of the first subdirectory for the first league, and the one out of the 2nd for the 2nd.

Well, I'm done for this year. Can you throw that into suggestions for next year?

Thanks. This was the problem for myself as well as a friend of mine. May be good to add this point to the user guide or something...
