I'm using Remi Coulom's wbengine.exe for the auot232 operation. It has limitations but I can get it to do what I want most of the time. Crafty is using it's own book from Bob's site. I think it's about a 3-4 meg file. I'm using 3/4 man tablebases and a few 5 man tablebases but not KRPKR because I don't have enough memory to generate it and I can't download it from Bob's site. I believe that one tabelbase (KRPKR) is the most important one and would make a slight improvement in Crafty's performance. I don't know what the difference is with teh Chessbase version of Crafty. I just don't like the way it acts under the Fritz GUI. Wcrafty is in it's normal environment in a dos window and works great. Jim Walker
