Can you not click on the column that shows the ECO classification, and arrange the games in order that way?

1. Open Chessbase 17
2. Click on "Board" at the top, usually towards the left.
3. Enter in the moves of the opening you want to find like 1.d4 Nf6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e3 or whatever. Do NOT close this window.
4. Go back to the home screen and open your database, like Megabase
5. With the database open - showing all the games - click "filter list" at the top
6. Click the positon tab, it's usually the 3rd tab along
7.Click "copy board" just below the empty diagram of the chessboard. The position should now show your opening
8. Click OK
