Important functions in MyGames


Answer

How can I overwrite/replace an existing game?

The command Save replaces the notation and incorporates changes you may have made, e.g. text comments.

Save as New saves the game in its new form but does not replace the original game.


Can I copy games from one database to another?

Mark the games in the database. As usual in our programs, games are marked by holding the CTRL button and a mouse click. Now click on Copy at the bottom of the games list. The games are then copied to the clipboard.

The next step is to open the target database and then click on the Paste button. The games are then pasted into the database!


Can I delete games from a database?

Yes, that is possible. Mark the games you wish to delete by holding down the CTRL-key and clicking with the mouse. Then click on Delete at the bottom of the list. The games are then greyed out in the list. The reason for this is that at this point you still have the option of cancelling your request to delete them. Thus the games are only marked for deletion. A click on Remove deleted games will definitively remove the games from the database. But if you decide not to delete the games, mark the greyed out games again with CTRL-key and a mouse click and then click on Delete for a second time.

Tip: After you click on Remove deleted games these games have been irreversibly removed!
