Is it possible to search a bible and the interlinear it contains?
Can you search a bible, for example NASB with a greek word to get hits off the interlinear? I know I can search a different book to get the results (LGNTI).

Thanks for the quick reply. I should have said a greek word but spelled in English. Which is the way I see it right now most of the time.

Do you mean as transliteration as per option 2 in https://wiki.logos.com/How_to_enter_text_in_Greek_and_Hebrew ?

In fact I entered g:basileia into the search field...
Have joy in the Lord!

I do not know a lot of Greek and as I am reading a commentary a Greek word will pop up, rarely in Greek usually in English. And I was hoping to find a way to search it with just my bible, so I don't have to keep another book open to do it.

NB.Mick I just copyed and pasted what you said you entered into the field and I did not get any hits.

Oh I see you have to pick it from the drop menu. But I am reading it in English I may not know for sure which one to pick, so I am going to another book to find out.

Can you explain a bit more what you are trying to do?
You seem to be wanting Greek words in English - but Greek words are in Greek.
How, for example, are you using the LGNTI to achieve what you want?

I want to say thanks to NB.Mick and Graham. I have started using the info you gave me and it does help. But to your last question Graham I am using the LRC right now and at the end of each chapter they do a key word study and if you have any of them you can see they always spell the Greek word in English and I was hoping to just copy and paste the word to the inline search on my bible (NASB). Now if I c & p that word into the LGNTI it will search and give me hits, but if I do the same thing to the bible I will get no hits.

I see what you mean - thanks. They are showing the transliterated form of the word and you can (nearly) use that as you are hoping!
An example from the LRC on Colossians is "Melos" - if you copy that into the inline search box you will get the dropdown menu giving you the option to choose the actual search term. You want the lemma (outlined in blue). As this shows the English spelling you should be able to match them up
Does that help at all?
