Houdini Help
Date (year, month, day)
Here you specify the year, month and day on which the game was played. This is not
to be confused with the tournament date. If the exact date is not available leave the
day or month empty.
Result
Enter 1-0 (White won), ½-½ (draw) or 0-1 (Black won). If you haven't entered a
complete game, i.e., if the moves merely represents analysis, then you may want to
use an evaluation symbol instead of the result. By clicking the arrow in the result box,
you get the menu shown on the right of evaluation symbols from which you can
choose.
Reset
This clears all data from the Save dialog.
Annotator and Teams
Click the Annotator and Teams tab at the top of the Save dialog to enter data in this
form.
Annotator
If you have entered variations and text annotations you should type in your name
here. The program will automatically offer you the user name that is entered in the
M e nu F ile – Unser info.
White/Black teams
If a game is part of a team championship, you should enter the names of the teams
here.
Source
You can give a source for the game. If you want to do so properly, you should click
Details for a more extensive dialog box.
Note:
Games cannot be stored in a database which is on a DVD. Remember to create a
new database for your games, which you will probably not want to store at the end of
a database of historic games.
All games you play against the program are automatically stored in a file called
autosave.cbh. You can always access this database and check games you may not
have manually saved.

Copying Games
We're going to look at how to copy games from one database to another. It works
very much like the process of copying files in Windows Explorer or copying text in a
word processor.
There are two terms we' ll use in this description:
Source database -- the database you're copying games from
Target database -- the database you're copying games to
Your first step is to go to the game list window (shortcut: F12 on your keyboard).
