Is there an easy way to search for all Bible verses...
... quoted in a particular book? Unfortunately, this particular one (Russell's The Parousia) doesn't have a Scripture index.
Can I create one?
Thanks!

You can use the Concordance Tool: https://ref.ly/logos4/Concordance

Try using the Concordance tool with your resource. This might give you what you want. I ran the tool with the "The Fulfilled Family" and below are the results. Once it is Complete select Reference from the pull down. Also, if you expand the reference you will have a hyperlink back to the resource where that reference is.

Perfect, guys! Thanks so much!
Ya gotta LOVE any piece of software that allows you not to have to write down a long list of Bible references (1,738 of 'em!!) every time you come to one, just so you can keep track of what he quotes, yes?
I've said it before, will say it again: GOD BLESS FAITHLIFE AND LOGOS! Bob Pritchett and gang, you rock! [}]

And now a follow up - When I try to export the list of verses that it finds to Excel, what I'm getting is only this in Excel:
When what I need to have is this (the sublist with all the books and references.)
Any thoughts as to what I'm missing? Why is it only sending the first "layer" as it were?

Try the following:
- Print/Export entire book to a Word document
- Then in Word press CTLR/CMD A to select entire document
- Press CTRL/CMD C to copy to clipboard
- Create a passage list
- Select Add from Clip board
- Then Press Sort to put them in canonical order
From there you could print the passage list if you wanted to.

I'm curious why do the export to Word, rather than just selecting the text from within Logos? It seems like 3 unnecessary steps.

Because I did not want to select the entire book with the mouse, of course this would depend on the size of the resource. I just found it easier to the to go through the extra steps and use shortcut keys to selection, copy and paste which don't work within a resource.

or just run a basic search <gen-rev>

[Y] Fair enough! As long as users who come across this thread know there are a couple of paths to the same destination.

Okay, well a follow-up problem to the first problem: when I use the Print/Export command (i.e. Ctrl-P), it only offers me Excel as an option, either saving it as an excel file (which gets me the first-level list or send to a new document, Excel only, or opening in an open excel file (which doesn't work by the way)
Also, where a preview would appear is written "this panel supports export only", whatever that means.
So Word is not offered as an option.
Anyone?

Yes, that is the only option available. However, It does seem like this might be a bug since only exporting the first level is pretty much useless.
Opening in "an open excel file" works fine for me on both Mac and windows version using 8.13 and office 365.

This simply means there is no preview available for the export content. Maybe Faithlife will add the code to preview later. However, I don't think this would be priority for them.

Thanks Bob! So i went and tried it again (I'm in Windows 10 Pro, version 1909)
- Paste into an open document: the blank excel spreadsheet becomes active but when I go look, there's nothing there.
- Send to a new document: Excel opens and then crashes.
So obviously I've got an issue of some sort.
Can anyone at Faithlife help out? Or does anyone else have The Parousia and can reproduce the issue when they run a concordance?
Thanks!

Replicated Concordance Print/Export only exporting first-level list on Windows 10 Pro 1909 (without any options to select more levels). Also does not matter if any Level items are expanded in Concordance Tool. Replicated opening in an open Excel does not work as Logos 8.14 Beta 1 is 64 bit and Excel 2010 is 32 bit. While LibreOffice 6.4.3 (64 bit) is installed, Concordance Print/Export only has Excel options.
Search idea is: <Ge-Rv> in Parousia (Print/Export of Search results has more options than Concordance).

Thanks! Yes you're right it does find all the results and make them exportable so I've done that. Unfortunately, in this case it just exports all the text and references - so the amount of cleanup required would be beyond the pale... getting the Concordance export to work properly there will always be the best solution.
I'm glad you were able to reproduce my issue though... nice to know it's not Personal Issue, LOL! :-)
Logos folk? How about at your end? Any progress there?
