Thanks for the replies Guys, Dann, I need the format that Hiarcs732 (and I believe Fritz7) generate with TBGEN.exe, for use in Chessbase products. I think they are Nalimov format, but the Help file and Manual don't say - they just refer to them as Tablebases. Peter, I specified Australia believing that would be much simpler and quicker, not involving international cheques (checks). However, if I don't get any assistance from within Australia I may well take you up on your offer. Henrik, I realise they can be downloaded, but our connection 28kbs!! gives us a max of 12meg/hour if we're lucky, & cuts out after 4 hrs. Many of the files are bigger than 48meg, and anyway, I couldn't contemplate downloading 8gig. I've been trying to generate them, but one file took 32hrs (pentium4, 2.4ghz, 1gig memory) and some PawnPawn files continually use the hard disk despite a 600meg cache, & promise to take Weeks to complete, completely tying up the computer in the meantime. I was hoping to come across an Aussie who had fast-downloaded them & was willing to copy them for me. A yellow banknote + providing the CD's is a quite reasonable reimbursment. I know there must be Aussies out there, & maybe they just haven't seen my plea yet. Cheers Guys,
