It is in the same directory as the Fritz GUI.  Mine is under "C:\program
files\chessbase\chessprogram8".  If you got an upgrade from the Playchess.com
site that could be the problem.  You need to find another "tbaccess.dll" file to
replace it with.  Or maybe they now have a good one at the site.  I gave up on
trying to "update" my GUI from PlayChess.com.  Chessbase is incapable of
producing an update without introducing more bugs.
