Slight problem here folks:
If you look close you can see both the exe and the dll behind the app screen in the upper left corner. You can also see Logos running on the taskbar.Are you running the most recent version of Logos? Sometime in the past few months Logos changed their program so that it requires version 4 of the .NET framework, which meant that what my program links to was changed, which would explain why it can't find what it is looking for.

Yet another rich discovery! This Index creator is fantastic!

I have updated the file with my index of Bible studies that I have on Logos, which includes the Logos 6 and denominational packages that I have, and various other resources. There are about 45000 references indexed now. There is also a new version of the program that creates a personalised index that includes only the resources that you (and I) own. For instructions on how to use these files, and in what ways they are useful, see the previous messages in this thread.

I seem to be having the same problem. I am up to date on my Logos version running windows. In the meantime I have compiled the larger index, but would prefer the other.

Follow-up
Retried running the indexer on my other computer (Win. 8.1) and was successful. I do not know why the problem on my desktop (Win. 7).
Recompiled the file, and am now in business. Thanks.

Strange. Maybe the other computer has the correct version of .NET, and the desktop no. Although if they both run Logos, I don't think that should be the problem. Apart from that, I have no idea and am just happy that you got it to work!

Richard, What a gift this is. Installed beautifully. I so appreciate that you did it and made it available in such a easy to execute form!

How can I tag this tool so that it will come up when I search for commentaries on a specific passage. With book commentaries I insert something like [[@Bible:Ge]] at the beginning of the document and then the work is listed if I am looking for some passage in Genesis. I would be satisfied if it came up anytime I searched for any passage and then I would use the TOC to find my target. I do not have the ability to tag it for each individual passage. Any suggestions?
I am amazed at how many suggestions for additional study this brings to my attention. Quite valuable!

It used to do this, and show up in the passage guide, but at some point all the milestones like [[@Bible:Ge]] got lost. I don't know how, maybe when Word creashed once and I had to reconstruct the file, I forgot to put in those milestones. So you can put them in your copy in the meantime, and I will put them in my file as well, so that they will appear next them I publish an update to the file.

Well I am not complaining. I was amazed how many items it pointed out that I never would have thought to look at.
I am curious. Is there a utility you use to put those milestones in or do you just do it manually? I see these huge commentary series people tag and wonder "how in the world"?

It would no doubt be possible to write a Word macro to do, but I will just do it manually. Probably take less time for me rather than working out how to write the macro.

Hey Richard, here's a helpful post from Robert Warren, on how to put the milestones into the macro. (It's toward the bottom of the page)

Another update to the file. There are a few new books in the index, but the main change is the addition of milestones (one for each chapter) to the file, both in the main DOCX file and in the personalised indexed of your books that you can create. This means that the book (My) Index Bible Studies will show up in the Passage Guide and other places in Logos. Just make sure you set the type to Bible Commentary when you make the personal book. Other instructions are in the previous messages of this thread.

Yes, this is quite an impressive achievement. I really helps you utilize resources you would never think of . . . and even if you did think of them, this streamlines the process of finding the relevant portion. You are so kind to share it, Richard.

Still enjoying this stunningly useful program. Thankful for Richard's work on this.

I have tried to run the application program to Index my Bible resources. I wanted a new copy since I upgraded to a larger library and to Logos 7.
Getting "Unhandled Exceptions has occurred in your application" telling me that Logos is not running when it is actually up and running. Tried stopping and restarting Logos. Same exceptions and message saying Logos is not running.
Has the program been run on any Logos 7 libraries yet?

I have added quite a few other books to the file over the last 18 months (mostly those on sale), but will work on those I picked up with Logos 7 before I post a new version.
It doesn't matter if there are Logos 7 libraries: once they are in Logos they are just books regardless of where they came from. What could make a difference is having the Logos 7 program running rather than Logos 6, if there were changes made in how Logos allows other programs to access its data. But I just tried on my computer with Logos 7, and my program ran without problems. Is there any extra information in the window about the Unhandled Exception? Often there is more data that helps to find the problem.

I have L7 Platinum and re ran the program and it worked fine for me, adding about 30 more pages of links to what I originally had in L6. My file turns out to be over 500 pages. It is a stunningly useful program for me.
