Also, look in the "Options" pulldown menu, choose "savegame", "savegames
automatically", check "to file", then specify a file name and save the games to
a pgn file.  You might want to consider getting a copy of a cool little utility
by Lamb Chop's programmer called Pgnres that will tally the results of the file
for you like this:

pgnres games.pgn /s > games.txt
