this is the only thing I truely care about and didnt expect it to directly import as youve stated many times. The one thing I have hoped for is to be able to manually edit the player histories like I do currently, will this be possible? Will it be possible for me to manually take one player history from v6 and copy it somewhere into the database for v06? Can I set what is kept (certain accomplishments) in the player history in the new database, to where I won't have to manually add in some things?

Will there again be manually editable record book like in v6?

league history meaning the single league history html page? doesn't bother me that much as I already have plenty of other html pages scattered throughout the site...but since the major league stats and such will import...will the new "catobase-like" history run retroactively, Im guessing if theres not its unlikely a 3rd party will allow it to be integrated into the games files itself?

the same applies questions to the team history pages.

doesnt bother me since the entire format for the lineup/depth chart/rotation changes with the new game...and I dont use coaches, but if I did Im guessing that format changes as well.

OK, now I need a beer

Opening Day as in the first day of the regular season or Opening Day as in the first day after you've hit proceed to new season...and after reading the comments Im still not quite sure I understand what you mean with the minor leagues there...Ill just give an example and perhaps someone can tell me what would happen...

I want to import my current online league which is obviously ML-AAA-AA-A....I want all three minor leagues and the major league to import and I want to add a rookie-level, full season minor league and an undisclosed amount of independent/foreign leagues...would this work?
