Omid, Depends on your hardware. I do this all the time but simply import the games directly into a new Classic opening book (.bkt) format. It also depends on what length in plies you have chosen to import. I would say a couple hours depending on my questions. Some advice, get rid of all games that are draws and by weak players. This should cut the size considerably. DHM
