So, if you have legal rights to this material, you can spend some hours cutting and pasting each of the 5334 positions into your Memopad database via the Palm desktop. Or, you can do as I have done and write a program to build the memo.pdb via the p5-Palm perl library:

Once you've got the database assembled, have CT play opposite you in each of
these exercises, or have it play your move if you get stuck.  Awesome.

Well I don't own the Polgar book, but I do own the Reinfeld "1001" book. I guess what I'm trying to avoid is cutting and pasting the individual positions into memopad one by one. Sounds like the perl script you wrote is the answer! Any chance you would be willing to
share your script? Thanks.
