Importing Draft History

Post by bl981 »

Hey Guys,

I am editing a database to be ready for 2021-22 season. I want to import draft history into the database to have the 2021 NHL Entry Draft already completed with filled draft picks from online mock drafts.

I created a template using the editor, filled in all the prospects and drafts picks and clubs etc. When I try to import into the database I get an error saying that all rows cannot be imported and on the error spreadsheet that it creates every row shows the error is "Club" but i have no idea why? I have every club name entered correctly.

Is what im trying to do not possible? Or do i need to do it a different way?

Thanks,

BL
