I bought CB 6.0 originally and used the upgrade options to 7.0 and 8.0. It cost some money but I am still a happy user of it. In each version/update the database dedupe mechanism improved. So CB 8.0 is better as 7.0 for deduping. 2) You can try also the free downloadable ChessBase light. If I remember well this version has a 8000 games limit. You wrote thousands so if you didn't collect too actively you will be lucky and it works. 3) You can also create a CBF database or even a PGN database and dedupe it with freeware tools and convert it back to CBH later. Be aware then that specific CBH format information (multimedia, trainingpositions, special tags) will be lost then after converting back and that the the qualitity of deduping is not as good as with CB 8.0 Cheers, Michel
