Odd (or not so odd) Search Question.

Good day all,

I would like to preform the following search.

List all resources in which Martin Luther is quoted AND where I can find the title of the quoted resource.

Cited By?? No I think that is scripture reference only.

Concordance Tool? Don't I have to run that against a specific resource so that concordance is for THAT resource only?

I am not at home right now so I can't check for sure but did I see a Bibliography Tool? If yes then is that resource specific also?

A global "search everything" would maybe give me the info but digging the relevant parts out would be prohibitively time consuming.

Why this search? I want to see what works of Luther are being quoted from the most and if I should consider adding those works to my library.

Make sense?

    Doing a Basic Search on Luther - but specifying Footnote text - will find all footnotes where Luther is mentioned.

    There may be some false results (a different Luther) but it could be a good starting point

    Great idea Graham! Thanks, I will try it out when I get home tonight from work.
