I looked at the read.me file and it described only the fixes, non fixes etc. I was hoping for implicit instructions as to how to load gambit.tbk but it does not. I do not specifically find a "swapbat.file" in the download. There is a folder label swap, with the description "bat file" clicking on that twice and I see in the rebel folder a icon name "gambit". if I double click it again, gambit is replaced with "ct" apparently a rebel book (i don"t know) Well that much I have accomplished. It seems to me that I am close, but I cannot get "gambit" loaded from the Tiger GUI. For example I can load the tiger ct.bk, or the rebel.bk book. one prefers 1.e4 the other 1.d4 (dont remember which is which. By using the same GUI manipulations I tried opening "gambit", "Gambit.bk" etc. and I get a error flag "Error in Opening Book. Well that is about it. I guess I will open and run the Tiger Default book (i think ct.bk). I dunno if you have time or the inclination to help me. I certainly appreciate your help. No one else bothered.. Thank yo WAyne PS. Just had A thought. I have only installed Rebel Tigers
