I wrote a VB script to change the birthdays BEFORE importing a rookie draft.

No problem - does the job well.

Now after three years into my career I forgot to change the dates before importing the rookie file into the game.

I cannot see a way to either reimport the draft with the proper dates or change them in the game.

Since I'm now at the "begin amateur draft phase" am I screwed. And yes I did have a backup but it seems I overwrote that when I was messing around trying to fis this mess.

I sure would appreciate someone having some idea how to fix this.

OK. If I cannot change dates what effect will dates 43 years too early have? Other than looking stupid that is.
Is performance and retirement involved or is that based on years played,or something?
Thanks

Most players will retire after their 1st season as the age is just so off. I did an application as well to alter the birthdates to randomize the historical drafts, then I didnt know who was coming. My tests found that most guys that were 40+ when drafted would retire after 1 or 2 seasons.
