Message: I have a question about pgn format. I have downloaded a number of games from an online chess database (chesslab.com) into a textpad. How do I convert this to a pgn file so I can open it with fritz8 to analyze the games?

Message: Change the suffix in your Windows Explorer (if you are a Windows user) from *.txt to *.pgn and then open it with a pgn viewer.
This goes both ways (if you want to open the *.pgn file in Word or Notepad just rename it to *txt).
