Play online chess |  Subject: A Fritz question...
Message:
Can anyone tell me how to delete a database from Fritz? I've got Fritz 8 and for the life of me can't figure out how to get rid of some of the old databases I've created and then decided I didn't want to use. Thanks in advance! ws

Open the database and then choose Tools, Database, Delete Files. After confirmation, apparently it will delete your file from the disk, as well as the Fritz view. I just did this and it gave me a runtime error! It was a pgn file, not a database, however, so maybe that was the reason.
Otherwise, simply delete the file from your hard drive (or rename it), and then try to open it in Fritz using the drop down box. It will give an error and remove it from view.

Q: How does it feel to be back for the London Chess Classic? It's excellent. I enjoy this tournament immensely. It's a great showcase for chess in Britain and it has the worthy aim of building chess in schools too. Q: So when enthusiastic kids ask how they can become chess masters, what do you tell them? Just keep playing often. Concepts fall into place only when you get them on the board. It's a bit like learning a language; it's nice to read a book, but only when you speak to someone does it all start to fall into place. Q: When you are preparing for major chess tournaments like London how many hours a day do you devote to getting ready? As much as it takes – up to 10 hours if needed – plus another two or three hours during the tournament. Q: And how do you prepare ...

get a runtime error trying the "Delete Files" option to remove a database! But as John says, it's easy to work around by physically purging it from the harddrive. I love Fritz, but it is a bit flaky at times...

8-Year-Old American Wins a World Championship — America has a new world champion, and he is only 8 years old. The new titleholder, Awonder Liang of Wisconsin, tied for first in the under-8 section of the World Youth Chess Championship in Brazil, which ended last weekend. He took the gold medal on tie-breakers. Awonder almost ran away from the field, winning his first seven games before drawing his eighth and then losing in the last round. He was not the only American to medal. In the under-10 section, Ruifeng Li of Texas took the silver, also on tie-breakers. And in the girls’ under-14 group, Sarah Chiang, another Texan, narrowly missed out on the bronze medal when she tied for third. But under the tie-breaker scoring system, she finished fourth.
