That's good news for me. I tried to make my own books a while back, but the book maker wouldnt work here due to some missing dlls. I guess the big book is the best one??

I'm not too familiar with how zappa works. I have shredder gui with external books. If i could convert book to .ctg that would work for me.

Just a suggestion- but i think if the book you refer to is completely neutral for CCRL and CETG testing, it would be better to remove the name Zappa from it. I will go out on a limb and speak for both testing groups in saying i dont think we could use it with the name Zappa tagged to it. It just doesnt look good up front.

George, you seem to be wandering through unknown terriotories lately. George, only Zappa UCI can use the Zbook, it is not a GUI book. I doubt that you guys allow the testing with each engine using a different book. It is pretty much a better replacement for the Public.zbook I have been using.

Yep, the big book is the best one.
