Tips on searching for a player


Answer

Question: In the reference database how can I conduct the search for a player if I do not know exactly how his or her name is spelled? For example, I would like to search for the player “Tomasz Szczepanowski” or “Thomasz Szczepanowski” and have a look at his games. What is the best way to solve this problem?


Answer: When the spelling of a player’s name is in doubt help can be found in the player index which is created in every database. The following screenshot shows the display of the player index which provides the solution to the specific problem described.

Below the player e=index you will find a small entry box. As soon as you enter the first letters the appropriate entries will be listed in the player index with the names of players.

It is obvious why this method should be preferred. You can rapidly find the player you are looking for among similar names and then go on to play through his or her games!
