This may not be possible, but it is worth asking. Is it possible to edit or change the "game name" text after completion of a game? I ask because I am trying to learn from my archived games and would like
to list them per openings..... i have > 75 games and it is a pain to keep track of waht opening was in each game.

Its not possible on this site.

Have them emailed to yourself. Then you can archive them as you wish on your pc. You can use something like chesspad to open the pgn database.

The pgn will have the entire game score, and the players' names. Then, using any decent database program (someone else will help you out with that) one can list them per opening, make notes and list variations directly into the game score, or do just about anything else you like.
