Misfit138, if there was a decent COBOL or Fortran IV compiler (showing my age here), I could whip something up real quick :rotfl: .

I've done a few things in Visual Basic, so I have an idea of how to do it, and it should be doable in C++ also. All it would invlolve would be reading through the original events.ini file and only writing out the events that occur on or after the date that you saved your career into the events.ini file in the radio station events folder.

You could place the original events.ini files from the radio stations into the blah,blah,blah...\Data\Sound\Radio folder and name them something like RadioStation.events (replace RadioStation with the name of the folder that the station is in). Then you could use your program to read the .events files and write to the .....RadioStation\events\events.ini file.
