not sure where i should post this so i guess here is a good place to start. okay this question is probably more for people who have experience in these areas but it cant hurt to ask everyone.
so i have a collection of couple hundred games that appear to be in a database. what i would like is to take the 12 first moves of all the games and make an opening book from that. then when i load the opening book or database i would like to see percentages of success for white/black/draw and performance rating and the rest of those details.
any help would be appreciated.

The Games Explorer should do that job some day, if Russ and Chris ever decide to update it regularly. http://www.timeforchess.com/gamesexplorer/

The Help forum or Site Ideas would have been better places to ask, the General forum is not the best place to look for serious answers.

I have alerted the mods, so if you can't find it here anymore, have a look in Help or Site Ideas.

You can do this using the free program, chesspad.

OPen your pgn in chesspad, and then click on the gree tree to go through your database. It gives stats on the right.

I'm not sure this advice would work once the thread is moved.

That said, I like this thread.

its been a while since i have posted here.
recently i was trying to add moves to my opening book but instead of the bolded lines which work any additions i made are in italics. when i try the opening book only the bold work and the italics wont work.
anyway to fix this?
