Hello Ted, Welcome to the Hiarcs 7.32 Confusion Club. I couldn't tell you much about the Beta except it has to do with Vitamin A - Beta Carotene. As for the 4-piece endgame, I believe that info is on the Tablebase manual. Initializing Tablebases means initializing confusion. The tablebase manual was not written for simple folks like you and me. I have asked these and other questions to Chessbase and have not received an answer in over a week - maybe they don't know either. How much attention was paid to marketing this excellent program when the manual in Hiarcs is called Fritz 5.32 and describes what features Fritz has but Hiarcs does not? Maybe we can start a Hiarcs 7.32 Confusion Club and figure it out by us all praying to God for the answer. Oh, if you go to www.ChessBase.com, check out T-notes for June 20. I believe, and you should find some information on Tablebases - even the 4-piece endgame question you have. If you find out the answer to initilizing Tablebases - by all means do post it, you may get checks in the mail. :) Mel
