- after i hit exit it skips the assign players to FA, and starts copying the master data. I then get a runtime error, saying something about duplicate entries or something, i cant remember exactly what the error says.

- i checked my ltrans file for "=r" and i didnt have any
- i even tried to import with win shares turned off, and still same problem exists

- whats even more mindboggling...i went ahead and simmed the entire next season, which for us would be 1908, and tried importing that into CATO, and it worked successfully. for som reasons 1907 doesnt want to cooperate

Does anyone have any info on how i can get by this? I am using OOTP6.11 and CATO 6.1.4.

Thanks.
This error occurs during transactions with multiple entries for a player on the same date. Check for these players and just move the second transaction to the next day. If there is not a tag in the file for that day just create one. I have had this process correctly most of the time but once in a while this one comes up. This error also occurs if you get an error during the season that blows you out of the game but saves the information to the file before it exits. There may be entries for the same day twice. example would be that it would say 6/30 followed by 7/1 then goes back to 6/30. Just check for these and then cut and paste the 2nd date behind the first date entries....

Other than this I have not seen this problem with CATOBASE....
