Hi Everyone, I Am New To The Eastside Hockey Manager 2007 World. Just Downloaded The Demo Yesterday & Plan On Buying. Hope This Is The Right Forum To Post This Question. I Have Pretty Much Picked Up Navagating Around The Game, But For Some Reason I Cant Save A Game When Its Finished. I See When Its Says Save But The Problem I Am Having Is What Name Do I Give The File. Is There Something Else I Should Be Doing That I Missed. If Possible Could Someone Give Me An Idea How The File Name Should Look When I Save It. Thanks Any Info Would Help.

Why Does Every Word Start With A Capital Letter? I see your username,....but you do not get style points and it is a nightmare read.

as for your question....you can name the file whatever you want. when you ask to load the game it will just show the name you gave it. it gives the extensions needed on its own. no capitals just to compensate.

What are you trying to do with the saved game? If you want to start it again rune EHM and chose "Load Game', or 'Load Last Saved Game'

yes that i understand. i thought when you saved the game to the ehm folder you could open it and see the print out of the game played? i guess i am wrong thinking thats what it does. why save it to a folder than?

Because if it's not saved to a folder, the game won't be saved at all...

If you want to print/export things, you can use the "Print" button in game. Only limited things can be exported unfortunately. For example, if you're viewing league stats, standings or your team's roster, you'll see a button in the bottom left corner of the screen entitled "Print".

The "Print" option lets you save to text or html (you can choose which via the Game Settings/Options screen).

This is how computers work. You save files to folders.

I'm definitely a "crumpler". My theory is that crumpling creates more surface area with all the ridges and small folds and stuff, which leads to larger quantities of removal and a sort of scrubbing effect. I would think the lower surface area and smoothness encountered by "folders" would lead to an undesired hydroplaning effect, or "fecalplaning".
