Create word list with NT greek words occuring more than 50 times?

How can I create these Greek vocabulary word lists...

1) All NT Greek words occurring at least 50 times
2) A subset of those words, only words occurring in (for example) Matthew 11

My approach was to create a NT >=50 word list by including all words and then deleting the ones that occur less than 50 times. But without the ability to filter the word list by word count, or to delete mass highlighted words, I'm stuck.

The problem is that when I highlight the <50 words to delete, it's a long list across many screens. Logos word list only seems to allow deleting one screen page at a time, even if I highlight more. There are too many to do this a page at a time.

If that had succeeded, I was going to attempt to merge with another list including every word in Matthew 11.

Maybe this is a bug? Is there a workaround?

Thanks!

    No problem. Click the column name Count to sort it. Click the first entry and Shift-click the last, then press Delete key. Are you on Mac?

    Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary has all New Testament Words occurring 50 times or more (albeit not in a Word List):

    Inverse workaround is Reader's Edition hiding of Greek lemma for 50 times or more:

    I'm not sure those would really be workarounds for me.

    But they are GREAT tips that I will use!!!

    Thanks. :)

    Hmm... Looks like a bug. It works fine if I only select up to 5 screens of selected words to delete.

    More than that at one time and it only deletes a page or two.

    I'm on PC, but with decent amount of memory - 16G RAM.

    Deleting 5 screen pages at a time plus a little patience got the job done to create a New Testament >20 list. Each delete was slow, and doesn't really have any feedback as to when it's complete. But it gets the job done. Would be nice to have that as a built in add words option.

    Once that was done, the rest was easy.

    Thanks to everyone for the input. And looking forward to using that interlinear >50 tip, also!
