Now I see the difference!!!
In my other reply to this thread, I was using the Junior 6 interface to look at
the book moves and I saw GREEN moves (e.g. for "f6").
I've now tried again using the Fritz 7 interface and I see them as BLUE moves
("f6"). But it's the same book file ("Fritz7.ctg") in both cases. The Deep
Junior 7 interface also shows them as blue.
Maybe some people are not using the Fritz 7 interface (because of other bugs)
and if the Fritz 7 interface is not used, book problems can result?!
For those seeing book problems with Fritz 7, what interface are you using?
