It would be very nice if BBO offered functionality to export a deal in PBN format (Portable Bridge Notation). http://www.tistis.nl/pbn/

This gives a user the opportunity to import a deal into bridge software that supports this standard; such as Jack.
Would BBO consider to implement such functionality to the BBO sight?

The Myhands database provides all the deals you play in the BBO lin format. Vugraph hands are available in the same format from the Vugraph archives. Many bridge software programs accept lin, as well as pbn, but if they do not there are at least two free utilities that will do the conversion for you: Richard Pavlicek's Bridge File Converter and Bridgecaptain's double dummy solver.

BBO can read PBN format.

I don't work for BBO and any advice is based on my BBO experience over the decades

Download the free "double dummy solver" from bridge captain website.... (their webpage, click on downloads). With bridgecaptain's free double dummy solver, you can download hands from bbo for anyplayer for the last 24 hours, last 7 days, all from current month, or all from "last month". (you can change the date on your computer to some day "last month", and get any hands from two months ago using last month option, assuming the myhands database still has hands back two months).

You can find a discussion of this fine free program here on these forums in several places (search for bridgecaptain, one word), or check this long thread on the subject... DD sovler,again


As an aside, there are also ways to convert lin file format to pbn if you like available on the web.


Good luck.
