Someone knows how to search a big database, for games with colored arrows & circles in the annotations?
With Chessbase ore any other software?

Re: Find games with Colored Arrows & Circles
Arrows and circles are stored in PGN as comments with escape strings [%. "[%cal" is for arrows and [%csl for squares/circles.
You can use any text editor or write your own simple program to pick up those games from big databases based on those escape strings. You may use OCGDB or Banksia GUI to search games from PGN or ocgdb.db3 since they are SQL for databases which are very strong for searching anything you need
