Hello Dieter,
You are correct.  I copied the position manually from one computer to the other.
(I only have Yace on one machine so far)  I missed the rook on e8 and this made
the Bishop and King move over one square to e8 & f8.  That is what made the Nxh7
a check+.  Sorry for the screw up.  Yace is a nice program.  I'm trying to get
it working in Shredder and Chessbase and Chesspartner.  So far so good.
Thanks,
Jim Walker
