The GBSelect2014.cgb book has 95 lines selected by myself. They are lines that I like to see played between engines or that I want to see explored further.

The GBDC2015-1.cgb book is a combination between lines from the GBSelect2014.cgb, GBDC122013.cgb and DC UltraFair.cgb books that meet Dann Corbit's strict criteria.
There are 393 opening lines in this book.

I have Deep Fritz 14, but does not accept books only from the type of ( .ctg )
So I download ( ChessGUI 0.245g ) program and then put the book ( .cgb ) but did not open
