Yea that helps. Its not like I tried to import them already. Why would you respond just to say use your brain. What was the point of that.

yeah i agree, that was like the most pointless mean spirited post - with slightly more effort you could have been constructive.

Of course its much more fun to put other people down isnt it...

Kid, you should of used yours before posting that. Grow up.

OP: I hope someone can help you out. I don't own Frizt but I'm sure your not alone and others can benefit from the answer. So to all those Fritz users please give this guy a hand. I'm sure you'll get an answer soon. Good luck to you.

Geez guys!

Get the pgn game from here or anywhere else.

Open up fritz, start a new game ctrl+N and then ctrl+V (pastes the game into fritz).

Do you have to be rude to everyone?

As if you, of all people, don't know how to load a pgn into Fritz!

Do they need to be edited from text form. when i try to enter them in the move list it moves e4 to the responce for black ex. 1...e4 . any ideas?

Select the text, press Ctrl+c, enter fritz press ctrl+v.

I don't understand your question. Take the pgn from here, just copy it like normal open up fritz and paste it in there.

It's just like using MSWord.

If you have a pgn file of games (one or millions), you can open them as a database in Fritz: file -- open -- database (select its location, etc.)

If you want to enter the moves from a game by hand in Fritz without it moving in response, you need to set the engine to infinite, or off (depending on the version--since Fritz 8 it is possible to turn the engine off).

If for some reason pasting the "text" into fritz dosen't work you can save it as a text file like *.txt and then change the extension of that file from .txt to .pgn. Then you double click the file and if asked what to open it with associate it with fritz.

Thats the ticket thanks a bunch.

I do not either. I print the scores and type in the moves.
