Searching for a database tool

Post by Wilhelm »

Hello, is there a tool to check if the results in a database are correct on hand of the last position? I didn't find one. I'm a little surprised that this is not a standard feature in database programs. Or I'm not able to use them correct ;-)

If the result disagrees with a checkmate, stalemate, "PGN-Extract" by David Barnes will correct the result if you use the parameter
"--fixresulttags".

"join/joined" will detect many inconsistent results, but not correct them.
