Will logos be able to fill in answers to questions in the workbooks and study guides like wordsearch bible software now does. I don't like just using the note feature. I would like to be able to fill in my answers to questions within the program just like doing a workbook.

Welcome to the forums. Logos already does in some books.

I don't know if there's a definitive list anywhere, but people have discovered the fill-in-the-blank feature in several resources (the feature was added in one of the upgrades to 4.0, at least as early as 4.0b where "user-editable titles" were mentioned in the release notes):

I know that the Studies in Faithful Living curriculum resources also have them.

I think it is Logos's intention to gradually go through all the most popular Bible study resources that have questions in them and turn them into editable fields, but who knows what the timeline for doing that work is. It would take a while, and I'm sure they will only do it bit by bit as they have time. You can put in a request for them to bump up the priority on the MacArthur Bible Studies.

Osiris, are you familiar with personal books? What I do is copy the chapter I am working on into a Microsoft Word document and then build a personal book. I minimize my Logos program so that it take up about half of my screen. Then I minimize my Word document so that it takes up the other half of the screen. I use the Logos program to mouse over or click on scripture references to display the bible text and to do other research. I use the Word document to format my personal book, fill in answers to questions, copy and paste from other Logos resources, and add personal notes, etc. It works pretty well. I have used this method for materials I have picked up from various websites and other software programs that I use. I think I like this better than being able to insert answers into the Logos book because I will always have a clean copy of each of my books.
