Yes, send the personalities (or any other files) directly to me at my CCC e-mail address. As for Chessmaster.obk, you've got me. I have no idea what that is and it appears that neither the program nor any of the personalities uses it. Perhaps it is a file that shouldn't be there (i.e. a file that was in early Beta builds and not removed from the final build).... Fascinating! jm
