The Copy games dialog shows you the source and destination databases. The games are copied( appended) to the end of the latter. If you have already copied them, or some of them, you will generally be warned. You also have the following options:
Games The program offers to copy all games. Naturally you can change the number of the first and last game in order to copy only a selection.
Opening classification If the destination database has an openings key installed ChessBase will offer to sort the games into the key while they are being copied. You can deactivate this option if for some reason you want the games to remain unclassified.
Theme classification The same applies to the theme key. If one is present in the destination database ChessBase will classify the games into it while it copies them.
Don ' t copy single doubles This option is used to prevent more than one copy of a game from entering the database. It is only available if the destination database has an openings key installed. Naturally the function is very much slower than normal copying, since for each game the program has to check whether it is already present in the database. The speed depends on the quality of the openings key of the destination database.
Always Import Annotations If you are copying games and instruct ChessBase to skip doubles, you can in addition specify whether annotated games should be copied or not. If you tell ChessBase to“ Always Import Annotations”( i. e. games with variations and commentary) then it will copy annotated games even if they are already present in the destination database.
Copy multi media files This option is normally switched on, audio and picture files are copied as well when
