1.After analysis of some games are created a few variations.

If the analyzed game is added in the book might this read these variations
or it will be necessary they become "promote variations"?

2.Where can I find chess(tournaments)games for free downloading?

If you add games to an opening book (a *.ctg-file) they must of course
be in a database. Go to the menu edit openingsbook import games and
a dialog box will pop up. You can check the box "include variations" and
also change the number of moves that have to be imported.

If you check the "include variations" box it will import the variations
as well, and there is no need to promote a variation to a main line.

There are a number of places with free games.

A hughe database is for download at ChessLib:

http://www.uib.no/people/pfvaf/chess.../freefiles.htm

The university off Pittsburgh has a chess site which also has a lot of
games for download:

http://www.pitt.edu/~schach/Archives/index2.html

A very fast connection with a lot of PGN-files (which can be read into
Fritz and converted into a 8.cbh database):

ftp://darkside.its-s.tudelft.nl/PGN/

CeeBee,thank you very very much.
Accordingly, the program playing for example as white, can read a variation
that it gains in game 0-1 and choose the path that leads in the 1-0 or
proportionally to unclear positions.
