I just want the most up2date rosters ill do it manually i don't have any devices except the ps2 and memory card.

If you download the latest PC update, you can open the players.dbf using DB Commander to view all the player data. You'll need to refer to the DBF Editing Guides in the NBA Live 07 subsite for more information on the fields in the database.

how do i get db commander

[Andrew]

You can find it in our Downloads section.

when i download it i just get a blank screen help please?

[Andrew]

I've just checked and the download link is working fine for me.

[bobcatjoe]

i download save file, open file, and firefox comes up with a blank s creen

[Andrew]

If you left-click the download link, a new window should open up and automatically redirect you to a download of the installation .exe file. At some point you'll be prompted to download DBC_2000.exe, which is the file you need. It sounds like you've just saved the redirect page to your HD.

http://psp.ign.com/objects/826/826444.html i want a page like this but with updated ratings/rankings

[Andrew]

What about that page in particular? That's just the main portal for NBA Live 07 PSP info on IGN.

[bobcatjoe]

the page leads you to each players individual ratings in each area such as baron davis: free throws:55 three points:65 Rebounds:33 for each player

[Andrew]

All I'm seeing is IGN's main portal for the PSP version of NBA Live 07.

oh sorry this is the right link http://sports.ign.com/articles/733/733434p1.html

Ah, I see. I don't have such a listing handy but all that raw data can be found in players.dbf. You can also open .dbf files with MS Excel, it's not recommended if you're editing the file for use with the PC version but for reference purposes it's alright. They can also be opened with MS Access.

when i downloaad DB commander and open it it goes to a blank firefox screen with a window saying, "you have chosen to open DB commander, which is a ms dos executable file. I click save file, and then it starts again. The screen is still blank, i click on it again, and it gives me the same screen

[Andrew]

Ah, you have a Mac. That makes things a bit more difficult, DB Commander is a Windows utility but it would appear that it can't run under Mac OS. In that case, I would suggest opening the dbf file with a spreadsheet or database program, such as MS Excel/MS Access or their Apple equivalent.

[RickyJon]

I also use a mac. But I cannot save the players.dbf in .dbf format.

[bobcatjoe]

I can't access the data with ms excel, dosbox, ms outlook express, or any spreadsheet i can find oh well
