Interesting, I was just looking at one of the files, and it seems it would not be too hard to create a database.  Ill see what I can do.

Is there a way to create a test database for me to practice on rather than merge the "Awards" into my existing good database? 

And is there a way to create a small window somewhere on the display/in the report that would show lets say "top lists" awards such as "AFI #83" and "Andy's Horror Movies #5" and whatever any other lists I may come up with/merge?

If you use my other tool (Cinematic Collection Viewer), you have a nice award editor (Edit->Awards) which can export to the necessary format. This way you are sure to use the correct formatting (especially in the 'Nominee' field I have established a standard which works best with the Viewer and the plugin.

I've created a first WIP version of the AFI list, it included all 1998 100 Movies "winners" plus the additional 300 nominees. Please note this is not yet an "official" release and it does not use the Award Year in the traditional sense. Instead of 1998 as Year the movies have their production year in that field. This allows seperating movies with the same name and doesn't restrict any other functionality.

Just installed the plugin, when I try to create a database I get the object reference not set to an instance of an object error.

I think the CCVControl.dll is not registered correctly.
Execute in the folder the plugin is installed the following command:
regsvr32 CCVControl.dll
A message that the DLL was registered successfully should appear.

I think I may have found a bug or at least it does not seem to work.

Its the movie The Godfather.  I own it as part of the Collectors pack that came with all three movies and a bonus disc.  I have in in DVDP and I have loaded Academy Awards, yet nothing is listed in awards for this movie, while the awards display fine for movies not in boxsets.

What should I do?

The problem for not finding the Awards is probably a mismatch of the Title.

Depending what you have as Original Title right now, change it to either "The Godfather" or "Mario Puzo's The Godfather" and see if that changes anything.


Mine is currently working with "Mario Puzo's The Godfather" but I have may have changed the Awards file myself...

Found the solution.. but after I edit an award do I save or save to file? When I tried to save to file and for this instance choose Teen Choice Awards it asks to replace it, I dont want to replace it just add.

I guess I just dont understand how to use the ccviewer, is there a help file? I dont really want to make a new file I just want to add to an existing file.

Save is saving to database. Saving to file is exporting it to a file (and then maybe to send it to me for inclusion in the online pool if you have collected some new awards). It will replace the existing file with the complete data of the award you have selected (all the years).
