Answer

Our database format allows not only the simple saving of games, positions or game data. Databases may also contain extensive texts including embedded links, these are called database texts. All database texts are produced with the integrated ChessBase text editor and contain important information.

The following screenshot shows an example of the way database texts are represented within a games list.

A double click on the entry in the list displays the database.

Within the text itself you can immediately access the game being discussed with a click on the link or in Fritz Trainers you can load the appropriate video directly.

Database texts are generally to be found at the start of the games list, but can also be stored in the middle or at the end of the list. You can  target a search for database texts in one or more databases.
Let us assume that you would like to search through several databases in ChessBase for database texts. Hold down the Ctrl key and use mouse clicks to mark the databases to be searched.

A right click starts the context menu from which we choose the search mask with “Search”. In the search mask, under the tab “Game data” there is the option “Text”.

If this button is activated, the program will filter out for the window containing the results of your search all those database texts which are present.

Tip: if you frequently make use of a search for database texts, ChessBase 14 allows you to store the criteria for your search and reload whenever you need to! These functions are made available to you in the search mask of the new version of the program via “Load” and “Save”.
