Qh1+ 2. Bxh1 Rxh1# 0-1 Most chessprograms can read and write .pgn-files and will add the FEN-tag when you set up a new position before saving the game as pgn. In PocketGrandmaster, you could create a simple test like this: 1. set up a position (for example a mate-in-1) 2. enter the best move 3. save the game to a new database "mytactics.pgn" 4. now select mytactics.pgn with "File - select database" 5. and activate the training mode (answer "No" to "Continue last training session"). 6. make the best move entered in step 2 Best regards, Frank Schneider
