Sorry ... I did enter it again, and you are right. Now the move shows
up twice -- once as you entered it, and again showing effective 4/16.
BTW, there is a box to submit questions. I just mailed the following
and will keep bombarding them!

Greetings. I am player in a league using your system ("USML Rotisserie
League"). I also am a long-time commissioner for a league that uses
your football service.
In the past, I have had great success with your product. But the
baseball service has been very frustrating. Here is our current
problem. After working with the FAAB system, our commissioner entered a
number of roster moves on Monday night retroactive to the start of the
reporting period (Sunday). All of these moves show "effective 4/6" in
the transaction report, but none of them show in team rosters. Can you
help us figure out why this is the case?
Thanks in advance for your help. I wrote with a similar question last
week, but did not receive a response, so I am hoping that you can reply
to this message.
