A way to paste with Bible text in blue
I have searched the forums for the answer and they all referred to older Logos versions. In version 9 is there a code for me to enter when I want my Bible text to be pasted into Word or LibreOffice with a blue font?

(1) Define a Style in CopyBibleVerse tool that includes (for example) the following
[code]%ForEachVerseStyle=VerseBlue
=ForEachVerse
<p>[VerseText]</p>[/code]and use it as the style for copying from CBV tool to Word
(2) In Word define a style with the text attributes and formatting of your liking, including setting the text color to blue, and save that style to the styles palette as "VerseBlue".
(3) With these settings in place, when using CBV tool to copy and paste from L9 to Word, the Bible verse text will be inserted into your Word document using that Word style, and your Bible text will be blue.

NIce. Any idea if it is possible to paste into Sermon Builder with a LARGE text instead of the default MEDIUM font size?

On sermon builder, I think you have to change the font size after you paste.

That's all I can think of, unless there's a way to rewrite CODE per the answer to this post.

paste into Sermon Builder with a LARGE text
Are users wanting Blue font, or the hyperlink that appears in blue?
In Sermon Builder, instead of pasting, type the reference, SB will insert as a hyperlink (with the ability to change translations) then the user can change the size, color, and background.

Wolfgang, appreciated your help with this. Followed your instructions. This is what I finally had to do. I also wanted to have the verse numbers show superscript before the verses, but I could not get it to do it right, so I had to leave those out.
What I had to do:
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%NoCharFormatting
%NoParFormatting
%NoRedLetter
%ForEachVerseStyle=VerseBlue
=Header<b>[FullPassageRef] ([Version]) </b>
=ForEachVerse [VerseText]What worked with verse numbers at the end of the verses instead of beginning which was a no go.
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%NoCharFormatting
%NoParFormatting
%NoRedLetter
%ForEachVerseStyle=VerseBlue
=Header<b>[FullPassageRef] ([Version]) </b>
=ForEachVerse [VerseText] <sup>[VerseNum]</sup>This example made the verse number blue, but not the verse text.
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%NoCharFormatting
%NoParFormatting
%NoRedLetter
%ForEachVerseStyle=VerseBlue
=Header<b>[FullPassageRef] ([Version]) </b>
=ForEachVerse <sup>[VerseNum]</sup>[VerseText]0 -
I just tried the following CBV Style definition giving the Reference and the verse text different styles in Word:
[code]%NoRedLetter
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%NoCharFormatting
%HeaderStyle=VerseRefBlue
%ForEachVerseStyle=VerseTextBlue
=Header
<p>[FullPassageRef] ([Version])</p>
=ForEachVerse
<p><sup>[VerseNum]</sup>[VerseText]</p>
=Footer[/code]The two Word styles provide for text color, indentation, line spacing, etc.

Wolfgang, I am very much thankful for your patience and help. I was able to duplicate what you posted last after recreating the styles in Word, etc. What I was still looking for was the following screen image. The only way I seem to be able to get the result below is by using your Logos CBV you provided, the Word Styles to match, and by creating a Word Macro that includes a number of steps with a Style Separator to get the text starting on the same line. I tried everything I could in CBV to no avail. If you can find a way to do the below utilizing CBV and Word Styles, let me know. Otherwise what I have is working to my liking. Again thanks so much for your help on this. I hope it will also be beneficial to others.

Hi John, I've adjusted the CBV style code a bit so that the verses stay within one paragraph.
[code]%NoRedLetter
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%NoCharFormatting
%HeaderStyle=VerseRefBlue
%ForEachVerseStyle=VerseTextBlue
=Header
<p>[FullPassageRef] ([Version])</p>
=ForEachVerse
<sup>[VerseNum]</sup>[VerseText][/code]Once copied and pasted from CBV into Word, the only further step in Word is placing the cursor in the reference paragraph and pressing Ctrl+Alt+Enter. This inserts a "style separator" mark, and the following paragraph with the verse text then starts on the same line.

Yes indeed Wolfgang, that is basically what I recorded in the following macro. I also made the cursor end up one line space down after the Bible text. I then added the macro button to my quick toolbar at the top with its own icon so I know what it is. Right after I use the CBV copy and paste into Word, I then click on the icon and I am ready to continue typing in my document. I think we have done everything and ended up with a very good result. Again Thanks!
The Macro Code:
Sub BibleTxt()
'
' BibleTxt Macro
'
'
Selection.MoveUp Unit:=wdParagraph, Count:=2
Selection.InsertStyleSeparator
Selection.MoveDown Unit:=wdParagraph, Count:=1
Selection.TypeParagraph
End Sub0
