Put Inbetween.exe and InBetween.ini in the same folder with TheKing engine. This is the same folder that you installed the CM10 Demo. Rename TheKing.exe to TheKing333.exe. Rename Inbetween.exe to TheKing. In the InBetween.ini file, copy and paste these entries.... [InBetween] CommandLine := TheKing333.exe Debug := 3 [Client2Server] [Server2Client] Now when you start the CM10 Demo, you should get a console window with the opk number, and other parameters also. And logfile.txt will also have these same parameters. In my opinion, to actually run TheKing 3.33 in another gui, for example, Fritz or Arena, the wb2uci adapter is much better than Inbetween. I hope this will help, and you will be able to extract the opk number. :-) Let me know if you have any questions. Regards Dave
