Hi Matthias

I believed the databases & books will be in Chesspartner (ChessTiger, Gandalf)
format.

The database filtering/sorting capabilities of Chesspartner are very limited
compared to RebelDos and (for example) SCID or Chessbase.

I've always used RebelDos as my database manager, and as Windows XP (which I
suppose I'll get sometime, like it or not) won't run RebelDos, I need a new
database management system - and that will be either SCID or Chessbase for me.

Cheers,
Tina
