My games played in BBO are saved as lin-files (*.lin). I want to use
these files in my Bridge software Q-PLUS BRIDGE to see if I have
bid and played well. I want to compare the game in BBO and the game
in Q-PLUS.
Is it possible? I can't do so.
Who can help me?

Most computer bridge software can read and write pbn file format (portable bridge notation). There are several trivial ways to convert lin files to pbn format. Or you can download the hands you have played online using bridge captain's double dummy solver. So the question is, does Q-plus bridge read pbn format. Take a look in your manual to find out. If so, we can come up with an easily solution for you.

Many many thanks for this helpful advice. The Double Dummy Solver works very well. It can convert *.lin to *.pbn. The PBN-Files can I use in my computer software. Q-Plus Bridge reads and plays them.
Kind regards
