I don't know of any way to create .mvs books directly, but it's possible to convert .rbm books to .mvs books with the rbmtomvs.exe utility program. The .rbm books are just text files and can be created fairly simply. This is a small example of a .rbm book: e2e4 c7c5 g1f3 e7e6 d2d4-g8f6 c2c4 g7g6 b1c3 d7d5 c2c4-g8f6 d2d4 g7g6 b1c3 d7d5 g1f3-g8f6 d2d4 g7g6 g1f3-g8f6 c2c4 g7g6 Regards Dave
