Hi Folks,
I know I read it somewhere but theres so much to read on this site and the manuel that I can't find it again. It's overwhelming, a bit. Anyway, how can i start a new league, fictional and import a team from a league i have allready created?
Thanks for your time

you can only import historical teams or players, you can't import a player or team from one fictional universe to another.

Thanks for the info. How can I import a historical team without selecting the entire season?

League setup then edit league structure and you can import just one team

Importing Historical Teams

You can also use this page to import an entire historical team, such as the 1967 Red Sox. To do this, just click the Import Hist. Team button in the same row as the division you wish to hold the imported team. You will be prompted to find the historical database you wish to use. The default database is in data/stats/historical_database.odb within your OOTP installation. You will then be presented with historical import options including a list of teams.

If you change the Season Year value, you must hit Refresh Teams List to get the set of teams from that year. Otherwise, the options on this screen are the same as those described in the Adding Historical Leagues page. When you are done tweaking settings, click on the Import Team button to proceed.

Yes, you can import players/teams from other leagues into another.

Unfortunately I cannot help the OP as I haven't done it myself, however there are a few posts on the forums explaining how to do it.

Here's what I found just doing a real quick search.

There were many threads in my result and I only looked through a few of them. This should get you started though.
