Copy and paste into Word from the Copy Bible Verses Tab
I have the latest version of Microsoft Word, the latest version of the Mac operating system Mojave, and the latest version of Logos 8. When I try to copy and paste verses using the Copy Bible Verses Tab, nothing happens. If I use the copy command from that tab and go to Word I can paste the verses into the document. This problem has existed for some time now. I updated to Word 2019 hoping that would solve the problem, but it hasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this problem or does anyone have an idea of how to correct it? Thanks.

Randall, I don't use Word for Mac so I can't answer definitively, but others have mentioned this in the recent past and, IIRC, an(the?) issue is with a new security/permissions strategy in Mojave... Perhaps someone else can chime in on this.

An alternative (on a Mac) would be to use the Replace With Passage service. You type the reference in the Word Document, highlight it, and then press the shortcut key (the default is Shift-Command-B (I think, I changed it long ago).
You may have to enable the service and change the shortcut to one that doesn't conflict with another shortcut in Word. Go to macOS System Preferences | Keyboard | Shortcuts | Services and scroll down until you find Replace With Passage (Logos).

Thank you Reuben. I'll see if I can find some information on this. Thanks Levi, but I'm not looking for an alternative. I'm looking to have this function as it did before.
