Every deal has a unique number. You can replay a range of random deals, for example usingdifferent thinking time settings for Jack or using different convention cards.

The manual is available as a pdf and can be printed.u.11. Does Jack play in a network?

Yes, Jack can play both on a LAN or on the internet.u.12. Where can I find the vulnerability?

Vulnerability is indicated by the highlighted direction indicators (i.e. colored red)both in the auction and on the table. Red means vulnerable. You can also change the settings tohave vulnerability stand out even more.u.13. Is it possible for me to obtain the Dutch playing cards on the screen?

Standard Dutch playing cards are on the CD but can also be obtainedusing [Help\Search for updates]. In the Dutch playing cards collection the aces feature some historical Dutch buildings, it might be fun to have a look at them.

After installation you can use [Settings\Table] to select theDutch playing cards.u.14. Network play over the internet does not work. Why not?

Possible causes are:

1. The Server computer has a firewall. The Server computer must allow the Client computer accessfor Jack to be able to establish the connection. How to do this depends on the firewall software.

2. Jack says that he cannot establish a connection. Normally this indicates that the Clientcomputer can not find the Server computer because the internet connection is not there.To check whether this is the case you can use the PING command. On the Client computer, open a DOS windowand enter:

PING

(substituting with the ip-address of the server) if the number of packages received is 0 than you have a network problem which is unrelated to Jack.u.15. During tournament play I cannot find the contracts played by the other pairs. Where are they?

In some Jack tournaments only a frequency chart is available and not the contracts played by the other pairs.The reason is simple: the organisation of those tournaments did not enter the contracts played and we did not get that data.u.17. When will a new version be released? Should I wait for it?

It is not necessary to wait for a new version to be released. Jack is stillahead both in playing strength and user possibilities but yet is also stillconstantly being improved.

If online activation fails on a computer that is connected to theinternet there are two possible causes:Your anti-virus software does not allow Jack to access www.jackbridge.comYour Windows firewall blocks Jack.We suspect that you answered a protection software question with NO where it had to be YES. Getting this corrected can be difficult and might require expert knowledge.If you are convinced that everything is done by the book and protection software is not the problem than it might be caused by a Windows problem. Start your internet explorer and visit some website. Keep the internet explorer active (minimize it) while trying to activate Jack.

TIP: minimize this window, and try it now!If online activation keeps failing you should select manual activation.On screen an identification code, consisting of 16 strings of 4 characters, isdisplayed.
