Question: I am starting an OOTP History league. It starts in the year 2000, with OOTP 2. Each season, I will upgrade to the next OOTP installment.

out of curiosity, and before I really delve into the project, how the hell is the lahman database supposed to be used? It can;t seem to open the thing. Would I have to place "quote" in where I have the path name with caps and spaces?

Like:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Out of the Park Developments\lahman58\lahman58.mdb

Or:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Out of the Park Developments\lahman58\lahman58.mdb"

Or do I need to d/l an older DB in order to be compatible with OOTP 2?

Anyone know? I suppose if worst comes to worst, I could probably just use the default league, and maybe change the player names myself. I would most likely have to leave the names how they are, for I don;t think I would want to go through all 30 teams to do that....

Anyone who has any suggestions?
