Import from Bible Illustrator software

I saw question and one response from 2012 but wonder if their is a more up to date response. My Bible Illustrator version 3.0 has functioned just fine through Win 7--at least the 32 bit version. As I contemplate being forced to eventually upgrade to Win10 I'm more concerned.

I am not sure what "Bible Illustrator" is... is THIS the thread you referenced?

Logos does not have any "import from other software" features. Your only option is to utilize the personal book builder tool. Are you familiar with that? Do you use Logos?

A very good program from Parsons Technology (think Quick Verse) stable in it's heyday. It was a database of illustrations. The interface was setup to that each illustration appeared on as if it was on it's own index card. It was designed to run on Windows 3.1 and Win 95.

Dug around and found my setup CD..installing on Windows XP Mode...the Deluxe Version came with lots of extra databases of illustrations beyond the base set of illustrations.

It had a very useful search interface

Thus endeth the history lesson and now to the Dean's question there is no direct way to import into Logos as already advised, building a personal book would be the only option. In your favour of being able to do this is that you can export all of the information in the database to a text file. From the text file you could build a personal book. Below is an example where I have exported just one of the illustrations to give an idea of what the text file looks like. Maybe someone can come up with an idea of the best way to convert the file from this format into a useable format for a personal book.

I had a computer store install Oracle Virtual Box running Windows 10 32 bit on the new laptop I bought from them. They were able to make Bible illustrator 3.0 for windows work on it
