Subject: Re: How do you load a epd position in rebel or fritz??

Go up one level in this thread


I am no Fritz expert, but when you say you have to use Windows Explorer to look
at the file does this maybe mean that you saved it as HTML? In that case I would
try again but use Save as txt.file. I haven't got Fritz myself so can't try it
out. I would keep the EPDstrings as clean as possible, just select the strings,
so maybe not Select all if there is more on the Webpage.

Good luckwith it!
