Importing a fictional team from one game to another

Hello,

Say I create a team with fictitious players in a game. I play the game and decide I really like these fictitious players and would like to keep them together and import just that fictitious team into a new game.

Can it be done? How can I do it?

Also, is there a way to "roll back" the calendar? The 2010 Major League game starts on 4/4/10. But I wish I could have it start earlier in the year so I can have a full spring training...

Actually, check out what I'm doing: Remember the baseball game from Accolade, Hard Ball? (played on the Commodore 64) It came with two made up teams (All Stars and Champs) teams make believe players (Guy Jose, Tony Frisina, Moose Lorenzen).
Well, call me crazy, I copied the names and stats of both teams and I recreated them in OOTP11. Great fun... however, I'd like to know a way to move that team from game to game, rather than recreate the players every time I start a new game...

In OOTP 11, there is a button on the startup screen that says Import OOTP 10 Game. There will probably be a button like that in version 12 that say Import OOTP 11 Game.

Thanks... but I'm talking about a specific team, with in a game - importing JUST that team into another game. Kind of like how you would import a historical team into a game...

I think all you have to do is create the team in the new game and then import their roster from the old database.

OK, so how would I do that?

All I'd like to do is just import a team from a previous game into another game... Like how you would import a historical team...

You export the team roster to a text file and then import it into the new league you created.
