Jim825 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 You can take any roster file, change the file extension from ".dat" to ".csv" and then open it up in MS Excel. I've done this plenty of times with the attrib.dat file and can then sort on portrait ID, face number, etc. It will work with any of the roster files.
