Save each out as a text file (.txt)
Now, you should be able to just change it to a .pgn file.
You should also just be able to select all the text in a file and use Edit to paste the PGN text into Fritz.
If that doesn't work, I hope you get a better answer. I don't have Fritz....

Open Windows Explorer and select:
TOOLS then
FOLDER OPTIONS then
VIEW then...
click off the box that says "Hide extensions of known file types".
Reboot and then you can see the extension and rename it.

Yea,im trying that sort of stuff.
But fritz doesnt like .txt
it wants .PGN
thanks 4 help tin
Open your pgn file (in .txt format) with notepad.
Click file, save as.
On the Save As screen that pops up, change the "Save as Type" parameter to "All files". In the File Name box, type in the name of the file.pgn, ie: "mygames.pgn" without the quotes.
That should do it.
