Re:Fritz 8 + saving a game - 2008/05/11 15:29
The thing that is missing here is a new empty database needs to be made/created in that lost games folder of yours. That is why you see the open button. It wants you to open the database you want to save the games in.
From a Steve Lopez support article:
"To create a new database, just go to the File menu in the database window, select "New", and then select "Database" from the submenu. The Windows file select dialog appears. Go to the folder where you want to store the database. In the "Save as type" pulldown list, select the file format for the database. If you want Fritz to analyze your games, leave this at the default of ".cbh" -- although you can save games in .pgn and .cbf formats, you won't get all of the annotation features if you save the game into one of these formats. The filename defaults to "noname.cbh"; unless you see yourself as a Clint Eastwoodesque chess gunslinger, you'll probably want to change "noname" to something more meaningful (I use "sl-comp.cbh" to store my games against computers. I originally started to name it "losses.cbh", but I try to be optimistic about my meager chess abilities)."
