"I already asked ChessBase about the needed information to convert the book, and they refused to give it to me". I intend to buy the new Gandalf 6 as soon as it will be available (with or without opening book). I also intend to use it mainly in the Chessbase GUI. Like most users I need *.cbh-database suppport because nearly all my bases are *.cbh-databases . IMO you should give the owners of your program the possibility to convert a Gandalf book in *.ctg-format. At least a smaller tournament version. I think there is no need to get the information to convert the book from chessbase. You could release a Gandalf6.mvs book for example. I hope Ed Schröder would kindly give you the necessary informations. All CB users can convert the *.mvs-books in a Chessbase tree with the import old book function of Fritz. There might be some problems regarding the weights of moves. However such a special tournament book could be worth the extra work. Dont forget that nearly all your potential customers own at least one Chessbase product. Michael
