Hello, I am sorry. I saw the $ in the notation and when writing the mail I did not remember which ones. I have attached a pgn and a picture how it looks like in Chessbase. 8, 22, 32, 36, 40, 132, 138 do not work. Loading a game from the browser to check it in the main window solves my problem. So it remains that the top games list should contain more infos.

Right. And I also would add that currently not even in the
browse window all data shows up.

Yes. Unfortunately.

What I just mentioned. Yes. You'll have to load the game,
indeed. I admit that I wish for some improvement in browse
window as well. Pretty much what you mention. I added your
points to the ToDo.
Note however that you may use the database switcher to go to
your own previous game again.

Just loading it works, but I admit that this is sometimes
not idea.

No. You can just hit ? <enter> in the main window. Same
works for !, !!, ??, ?!, !?, +-, +/-, +=, -+, -/+, =+, =.

They should. I actually just checked this very $12. I also
added quite a bunch of such games to Scid it always worked
out fine. Could you probably send me your sample game? (In
PGN.) I'd like to give it a try here.
