So the way to do that is to filter all the games BELOW 2200 and then delete
them. Kind of convoluted, but why not!? Still, can I rename the remaining
database before compacting it in order not to delete the original one? Or
should I make a copy of the original one first?
Also - thanks for your explanation about Mega2009 and its copyrights. What
a mess! I guess I will stay clear from this one ;-)
Kind regards and many thanks!
