Maybe Mr. Nalimov will give it to you. >I thought it was on Bob' site but I just checked and did not see it. >Jim Hi Jim, the above looks like what you have to do, but is not totally correct I'm afraid. 1. copy datacomp.exe to the tb directory 2. open a dos window, change to the tablebase directory, and type in: for %f in (*.emd) do echo datacomp t %f >> checkall.bat 3. open checkall.bat in a text editor, substitute all "EMD" with "emd >> report.txt" and close the file 4. run checkall.bat (from the dos prompt or by doubleclicking in windows) 5. check the file report.txt that was produced in step 4. If you see any error messages or strange lines redownload that particular database file. This is from the top of my head, so it's probably wrong also :) Groetjes, Paul
