why do you want to "enter" moves in the game of more than 300?
Doesnt make sense.

Why did Frans,Amir,Chrilly and many authors also stefan use Chessbase for the
WCCC championship?why didnt they use Winboard or Arena???

can you answer this?

what are the other bugs in chessbase GUI that you could tell us?

wouldnt you say chessbase has more features than Arena?IE time management and
correct swiss pairings?

Arena did a poor pairing.you know,there were 4 engines leading in the front with
6/8 each.one engine has chance to play with any of the 3 top engines in that
particular tournament,Arena generated its poor swiss pairing matching that
engine with some lower 3/8 engine which you wouldnt have expected.
