What file did you download and was there anything already inside the root directory you mention?

All you need to do is open the .ods file using the excellent–yet free–OpenOffice suite.

-Use this link to get the file: (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bb-salary-calc/files/bb-s...)
-Download the OpenOffice suite here: (http://www.openoffice.org/)
-Try right clicking on the file itself and select "open with->OpenOffice".

There is indeed a Excel version of my tool available for download, but I haven't tested if it is compatible, so beware.
If you don't want to download OpenOffice, you can download the untested Excel version of the tool here:
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/bb-salary-calc/files/bb-s...)->Excel 97/2000/XP
or (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bb-salary-calc/files/bb-s...)->Excel 95
or (http://sourceforge.net/projects/bb-salary-calc/files/bb-s...)->Excel 5.0
However it is likely you will encounter compatibility issues, because this excel version was created by OpenOffice as an attempt to replicate an excel file.

Hope you find a solution, any problem just ask

There's also a salary calculator on the buzzer-manager site (www.buzzer-manager.com) . I think it hasn't been totally updated after the recent salary adjustments, but it is still probably pretty useful. If nothing else it'll tell you the upperbound in a guy's new salary.

Yes, it's outdated (since season 15). It gives decent numbers except for huge salaries (above 250-300k or something) where it is pretty off. Still useful to roughly predict salary increases for example.

But the reason why I decided to post this tool here is because it can calculate if a player has reached his potential. That's only possible since Josef Ka discovered the formula a couple of weeks ago.
