Search The Scriptures 1998 returns no results
Submitted by Johan on Fri, 11/27/2009 - 04:49I have converted the Institute for Scripture Research's bible module, The Scriptures 1998+, with Rick's conversion tool to e-Sword ver. 9, but it does not produce any output when doing searches on any word, either from double clicking the word and using right mouse button or by typing the word in.
I am using Windows XP Professional, the latest version of the conversion tool and e-Sword 9.5.1.
What could be the problem please?
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
In His Name,

Does e-Sword Converter translater 7.5.2 to 9.5.1?
Submitted by davidharvey13th on Thu, 10/22/2009 - 10:43I have many files from my 7.5.2 e-Sword, some Bibles I downloaded with BIT that are we are now having to pay for, which I can't afford, like NASB, Holman's, and Amplified, and tons of topics, dictionaries, commentaries and STEPS. I really like the new format of 9.5.1, and want to translate them. Will the e-Sword Converter make this transition? Please put this on the forum and email me at davidharvey13th
yahoo [dot] com if you know this answer. Thx.

not to notx conversion - successfull but show up blank
Submitted by jpreimer on Tue, 09/22/2009 - 23:05Hi,
I am running 9.5.1 and I tried converting a few of my personal NOT files with e-Sword 9 Converter. It says it is successful, the files show up and are at the right file size but when I open Eword I can select the file but it is blank. Doesn't show anything! Can you please give me suggestions?
Thank you very much!
God bless EVERYONE that is working on this project! It is truly THE BEST Bible Program!!

Upgrade from 8.0.6 to 9.5.1
Submitted by genesius on Mon, 09/14/2009 - 20:15I know there have been many questions and responses on this subject; however, I have not kept close tabs on them and I want
to have my upgrade run as smoothly as possible. So please understand if I repeat what others have.
System: Vista Home Premium 64
What is the best (no pun intended - BeST) to upgrade from 8.0.6 to 9.5.1? I have a very large study.not file and many *.top files
that I wrote myself. *I wrote the top files for when study.not was unavailable for missing Bible books. I want to make sure these
are usable in the new version.
As a different, though related issue, because of crashes over the years (my PC's and esword) I have additional study.not files
stored on my server. With the 9.5.1 version of esword is there a way to merge these together as one study.not file? Is there a
way to see that I am not duplicating entries? Under 8 and below I drew out a process that used BeST, Excel and Access to find and manually move unique entries from 18 different study.not files to a Master not file. However, when I came to entries of different sizes for the same Bible verse, these I have put aside as this is a very involved manual process.
Thanks and God Bless,

Converted bbl not searchable in 9
Submitted by mnadig on Sun, 06/28/2009 - 19:56I have a bbl that I had created with BeSt years ago. I found that searching for text, e.g. "glory of God" didn't return the expected results (1 Co 10:31). I confirmed when I navigate that chapter/book it's there. But, search won't find it. Any ideas on rebuilding an index or anything?
Thanks,
Mark
