Searching for Tables

I'm sure this is probably a quick search but I cannot seem to figure out how to search my database for tables of various kinds. For example, say I want to find a table that lists all of the miracles of Jesus, what would I use for a search criteria? Another example might be a table that lists all of the names of God.

Any thoughts?

Hi Dennis, this is how I would do it. Notice I limited the search to "Heading Text; Large Text" and put my search terms in quotes. This also works for Names of God. Hope this helps.

Just thought it worth mentioning that these two specific examples are addressed in a couple of Interactive Tools in the software:

Miracles of the Bible
Names of God

I recognise that's not the general answer to your question but I wanted to flag it!

The media search option allows one to search for miracles et. al. I use both chart and table when I search.

1. Use Factbook:

say I want to find a table that lists all of the miracles of Jesus,

type miracles and select Jesus: Miracles

You can save the passages as a Passage List to filter your bible (Visual filters icon >> Passage Lists).

Another example might be a table that lists all of the names of God.

Type God, select God and look under Referred to as

You can also type God names but the suggested articles are not as useful.

MJ, did you get any relevant results with that search? I thought about mentioning this way, but it didn't turn up any useful results for me, using his examples. I have always found the Media search to be a mixed bag as far as what you get in the results. One example is the Miracles of Jesus chart/table that is in the NKJV Study Bible. Didn't show up for me doing this type of search, but I may have been doing it wrong.

I get results, some relevant others not so ... but none of what I would except i.e. similar to the interactive.
