The PGN standard REQUIRES the standard seven headers, not just the Event header. Until Richard does this, he should stop claiming the ChessGenius can export PGN. How hard could it be to be PGN compliant: [Event "You-ChessGenius 1-0 1-24-2001 19:05"] <-- keep info for Note indexing [Site "Palm IIIe"] [Date "1-24-2001"] [Round "?"] [White "You"] [Black "ChessGenius 1.2"] [Result "1-0"] 1. e4 e5 ... 47.
