I was not able to import the pgn-file of a game I played on RHP into Fritz7. So I did some experiments. I pasted the file into Notepad. After changing the word gameid into event you can import the file into Fritz7. You first have to save the file as a pgn-file, ofcourse.

GameID can be leaved unchanged as a custom tag, better IMHO to change the EventId into Event.

By the way, the seven mandatory tag for a compatible PGN are:

[Event "?"]
[Site "?"]
[Date "????.??.??"]
[Round "?"]
[White "?"]
[Black "?"]
[Result "?"]

where 'Date' is in the format yyyy.mm.dd

@Russ:
just to know weather I shall contiune to hope or not:
will you bring perfect PGN, will you make it better (delete the points, add the star at the end...) or will it stay as it is (it is like that in the database and difficult to change)?
wanted just to know: on the list or not on the list?
thanks, nice weekend
