I have been playing on 2 separate PCs, and now I have 2 database with same name.

I was wondering if I can merge these two database.

I have tried restore but that will overwrite the other database.

The easiest way to do this is to export the hands from the smaller database, bring them to the larger database and import them there.

I have the exported hands ready, but in the import statistics it only accepts *.pt4stat and I have Text document.

Could you explain more about how to import hands?

That option is for importing custom statistics, not importing hands.

To import hand history files either click Play Poker > Get Hands From Disk or click the the import icon in the very bottom right of PT4.

If the database you are restoring has a different name then it will be restored separately from your existing database but if they share the same name you will be given the option to overwrite the existing database or rename the database being restored so you don't lose the existing database.
