Theres a website you can download off of I posted it, in the thread need help getting to 1400, to open it you have to have either chessbase or winboard.

Go to downloads and it's there.

You need a .pgn viewer though. There are free ones available if you don't have the usual chessbase or chessmaster stuff.

Don't post your e-mail here otherwise chesschitchat spammers well.... ya.

Chessmaster can open pgn files. Make sure pgn shows in the files of type box when you are trying to open the database.

Did it work?

I don't use chessmaster to much but I think if you go to database maybe and go to file open and click on the database you want it should open.

Yes I go along with that. Don't give your e-mail address out. You say you are a 17 year old girl (woman) well unfortunately there are lots of pervs out there and some of them, unfortunately, do play chess.

I would change your e-mail and not be so free with it in future.

Get the pgn game from here or anywhere else, www.chessgames.com has a lot, and then copy it

then Open up chessmaster and start a game on there and see if edit paste works.

If not then save the game as text(notepad) and name it ___.pgn and then open it like you did with the database games.

🙂 Yeah it is really good. I have both that one and Reinfeld's checkmate puzzle book. If downloading doesn't seem to work no matter what though; I'd recommend you just buying it. It's pretty reasonably priced, in my opinion. And that way you can read it while you in the car, while your walking, etc. and not always have to be in front of a computer. But if you're low on money try checking your local library, as well. Good luck!
