Hello Martin,
Thanks for the reply.  I'm wondering where you got that address?  I tried to
creat it at one time but I was unsuccessful.  Anyway I created the 6man database
using the checkerboard program but I did download the Chinook 7 man database.
Sorry for my stupidity.  Your program is great to play with and I just wanted to
give it the 7 man database files too.
Regards,
Jim
