Trying to figure this one out.

Are league files transferable?

I'm working on creating a 1960 roster file. Which I'm getting most of the data from a Front Office Football file. But wondering if I can copy this database and transfer it to another CPU? Is that possible?

Depending on the file structures

you're probably gonna need MS-access or Open Office and manually transfer what you can.

sounds too complicated for me then.
 
What about if I zip up the leagues files (the graphic files) and the database file and extract them to the new CPU with the same folder names?
 
I will try that and see what happens?

armyofone, are you just wanting to move the league file to another pc? Its just a microsoft access database file. You can move it about from machine to machine just like any other file. For instance, if you wanted to put it on your laptop so you could work on the league file when you are away...sure, its transferable.

I think we may have thought you wanted to take info from a FOF file and import it to a MAX league file. That I wouldnt know.

If you have max on a different PC also, you just drop the league file and league folder in the Max directory and when you start the game, and go to the league area, it will detect the new file and import it.

Copy and move the league database file and the league folder. 
 
That's all there really is to it.
 
Using a usb flash drive works great.

Well, playbooks have to be moved if they are not generic as well.
