It will do this in real time, just enable the tree display pane in the board window (CB8) But there are two problems. With finite computer resources, it will be a hard task to build a tree from 6 million games. Also, you need to keep switching the reference database, and building trees if you want to use it with an arbitary database. You can also do this in Chess Assistant. I have not tried it with 6 million games, but it is quite fast with 2 million, and it does not require that you build the tree ahead of time. It is amazingly fast. Bob
