Sometimes happens with a crash where the games are in the database but the tourney info is lost. What I do is load tournament then check the crosstable. If it's blank then I cancel. Open the *.trn (*.= Tourney name normally found in \chessbase\compbase) with notepad and make sure the line complete=1. I check the database of the games in Fritz and put in the FirstGame=# and LastGame=#. I then save the *.trn. Example at bottom. Then reload the tournament, now click on crosstable, you should see the full crosstable. Then click run\continue. [General] Title=New Created=2 Complete=1 FirstGame=121 LastGame=180 Cycles=10 Sarah.
