Bible version search for particular books
Is there a way to search Logos edition books that use a particular bible version for it's main scripture reference? Example: books that use the ESV or NASB as their main scripture source. Etc.

Well, for good reason. Often Bible-used is in the book intro. Sometimes in the footnote, sometimes the surface text.
If I were going to attempt it, I'd search the abbreviations. Then, look at the count by book. But that'd miss the intro's.
My current book, Origen's Revenge, the author treats Bible used (KJV) in the intro, but after that, translational comments (random).

Yes, I would think it would be a programing nightmare.
Thanks.

For real. Right at the copyright page they normally list several translations from which references are pulled. I think study Bibles may be the only place where main Scripture source would be reliable.

I have manually tagged my books with the primary and secondary translations given on the copyright page although one publisher of cheap eBooks puts it on the last page. Unfortunately, there is not quite sufficient uniformity for a search to be anywhere near complete. Common phrases to look for include "Unless otherwise indicated, Scripture quotations", "Scripture quotations labeled", "Scripture quotations labeled". … My final search argument is:
("scripture quotations from" OR "All scripture quotations" OR "unless otherwise indicated" OR "authors own translation" OR "Scripture text used in" OR "Scripture quotations are from" OR "Scripture quotations unless otherwise noted" OR "Scripture quotations are taken" OR "Scripture verses are from" OR "biblical citations are taken from" OR "scripture quotations marked" OR "all Scripture quotations in this publication" OR "Scripture references are taken from" OR "Scripture quoted from" OR "Scripture taken from" OR "all Scripture unless otherwise" OR "all scripture citations" OR "All Scripture is taken from" OR "scripture references marked" OR "Scripture quotations in this publication" OR "scripture quotations labeled" OR "All Bible quotations are taken" OR "Scripture quotations contained herein" OR "Biblical quotations unless otherwise specified" OR "Bible quotations in this publication" OR "scripture marked") BEFORE 5 WORDS ESV
Should get decent but not perfect results for the Bible use of ESV … for primary Bible being ESV I'd limit it to "all scripture" or "unless otherwise" which will add another layer of imprecision.

Thank you Mr. Smith. I ran your search and came up with:
Your Books 739 results in 347 articles in 335 resources
This should help me.

I have been waiting for this opportunity but my better judgment has me deleting political humor.
Thank you Mr. Smith.
Actually its Ms.
