I assume you might know this already, but...

Is the Use Arena Main Book option checked in the Book Management screen?

Also, when you configure an engine, in the Engine Management screen, Details tab, under the Books tab, make sure the Use Arena main books with this engine option is checked.

Tony, thank you very very much. You have solved my problem.
Engine management, configure engine, the Arena main book with engine option was not checked. :D
