Hi Phil,
Has anyone had a problem with SCID returning duplicate results when
you search for players names? I'm currently running a 2.3+ million
games database, but when I search for 1 player (that I know only has
maybe 1 game) I suddenly get 7 or 8 results, all the same game. Not a
big deal, unless I search for a players name and it comes back with
too many games.
By "returning" you mean "showing up in the game list"?
Just to be sure: do you once in a while "compact" your database (after
having created a back up first)?
When you delete a game (e.g. remove a duplicate), scid only sets a
"deleted" flag in the game's administration. The game is still there
(and may show up in the game list and can be undeleted) until the
database is compacted.
If this is not the thingy: I never noticed this problem (that I would
call a no-deal, since it means something is really wrong).
Cheers,
Joost.
Also when I check the collection the duped games don't show up
(checking #'s of games the search dupes). Anyhow, hope everyone can
understand my problem (BTW: if anyone wants the database, let me know).
