Need Help

I'm the commish over in the FFL and I have a player who's new to mulitplayer and I'm trying to get him set up. Here's the problem that he's telling me he's encountering:

"i get throuh the first 9 steps fine
1. Download the latest version of our files from our web site
2. Open that file and unzip all of the items into your "C:\Program Files\Solecismic Software\Front Office Football 2004\leagues" folder. If it asks you to overwrite anything, click yes.
3. Now open up the game itself.
4. Click the multi-player icon in the game (looks like a guy's head).
5. Click "enter new career"
6. Type in "football" as the league ID
7. Select your team from the drop down menu
8. Click the button that says "begin without a draft"
9. Click "ok" when the box talking about the .Q file comes up
10. Now click "Load Game"
11. Choose the "participant" button
12. Select your team
13. Click "open"
14. You've now successfully loaded your team in our league!

but when i go to load game there nothing there but my single player game and i dont see anything about a load game in the multiplayer controls...so im kinda stuck and would really appreciate some help"

any advice?

Exit and restart the game between steps 9 and 10.

Dola, you'll need to make sure (add another step?) the multiplayer box is re-opened.

The multi-player window should be open from step 4. I'll have him make sure it's still open though

The multi-player window should be open from step 4.

It's never open when you first fire up FOF, or did you miss my 1st response?

"now im on 13 and every time i hit open it says "unable to load game data file. saved game is missing"
