Question on filtering Chessbase Db's

Sort:
Avatar of ooSKOALoo

I have Fritz 13.  I have a bunch of my games in a cbh.  I want to bring up a list of my losses regardless of color.  I can only bring up losses as White or Black but not combined.  Am I missing something?

I'm putting my name in both player boxes and checking the "Ignore Colors" box.  Not sure what to select for result.  I just want a list of all games I've lost.  Thanks for any help.

No sure what to select for result?  Did you try anything?  Did you try 0-1.

I don't have Fritz 13 but if you follow your steps in Scid vs. PC and then select 0-1 you will get what you want.  Maybe Fritz 13 is similar.

1) Enter your name in either the White or the Black player name field.
2) Click the YES box in the Ignore Colors field.
3) Click the 0-1 box in the Result Field.  

That's it.  Click Search.

Doing this in Scid vs. PC then lists all 107 of my OTB tournament losses, whether I lost as White or Black.


I think I will add this as a Helpful Tip on my new tribute site.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.  

None of the result selections will give me all of my losses.  Using "0-1" will only bring up games where I lost as black. I just don't think the filter criteria is flexible enough

Of course, you can do want you want in Fritz 13, in three steps.

1) Filter all of your losses as White.  Export these games to a new database.
2) Filter all of your losses as Black.  Export these games to a new database.
3) Create a third database by merging the above two databases together.
