Just to put an update in on this: I'm at a point where I'm seriously thinking about releasing the setup portion this weekend. There's a few things that will affect that, one of which is that I want to run a live "alpha-beta" test before releasing that section, and the other is that I would be rigging a couple of buttons for faster use before the test, probably during tonight's coding session. Automatic team list pulling may be a little out of the question, unless someone knows more VBA than both myself (very little, but enough to function) and ttldomination (more than me).

After verifying the operation of the setup portion, I'd then proceed to a couple of key functions for the drafting portion, namely checking picks for matchup with the team list and checking picks for double picks, then go on to list and random picks. In a perfect world, I'd be done in a week or so... but this ain't a perfect world, so make it two and hope to be surprised.


Oh, and along those lines: Dibs on running San Diego tomorrow night.

Edit: Couple of minor changes and tomorrow's test, and scrubbing current data that's in there, and I should be golden to release--the button's working properly.
