Subject: Sparring Mode problems (with Fritz or Hiarcs)

Can anyone tell me why I get so few Tactical/Training opportunities from Fritz
or Hiarcs Sparring Mode?  Every day I go to Levels/Sparring/Easy/OK, and then I
play.  Most days, the program just crushes me off ruthlessly every game, and
there are no Tactical/Training chances, even when I review the game.  On only a
few days, the program will give me a tactical chance; if I see it, I can win the
game; if not, the program will tell me that I "missed something", and after the
game it will show me.  But the percentage of games that feature tactical chances
for me is very small - - like ten per cent.  Which is unfortunate, because it's
a great training feature.

Am I overlooking some feature?

Thanks for any tips,
Mark
