NBA Schedules-Tutorial

[mtaydus007]

Can some one help me with a good step-by-step tutorial for creating schedules? I've tried many times and it hasn't worked. I mainly use Microsoft Excel 2007 to edit the dbf files because it takes a long time to use DB Commander, unless some one can tell me the basics for a faster way to use it. Most of the time I copy the 2007-2008 scheduleseason.dbf file and edit the locations, date and teams. Some one also recommended me to use this format:
DELETED: Standard column, all values set to True this time
TYPE: Seems like the standard value is 0 or blank
SPECIAL: Can be left at 0 as well
ID: Standard ID field, except they'd appear to be out of order
PERIOD: Can be left at 0
DATE: Date in YYYYMMDD format (eg November 13th, 2005 = 20051113)
TIME: Time of game in 24 hour format (eg 7:30 = 1930)
LOCATION: Seems to be all zeroes, I'm guessing that means it will just grab the home team's location as specified in location.dbf
PLAYED: Game has been played in season, True/False
OVERTIME: Game went into Overtime, True/False
TEAMHOME: The home team, refer to the Team IDs guide
TEAMAWAY: The away team, refer to the Team IDs guide
SCOREHOME: The home team's score. Leave at 0 for the default schedule file
SCOREAWAY: The away team's score. Leave at 0 for the default schedule file

I looked into the 2008-2009 NLSC roster file and used the data from locations, and teams for the new team id's.
