APsit190,
Hello.
I was hoping/wanting to do something more simple - just use Libre Office Base and the tools in it to get a real simple operation going just to assign indiividual attributes to individual verses - except you could have an unlimited number and type of attributes to assign. I just figure my first task is to load in a usable bible database(or, data) to start. Then I can figure out how to design a window and functions to assign and store the attributes. I thought this would be much easier than learning how to program, frrom scratch. I might need to learn much of that - I expect to have to, probably. But, eventually. Not to start. Is it that hard to load an E-Sword module into a different database? Couldn't just some things be stripped away and a little something added to the module file to ready it to load into a different DataBase? Its almost the same thing its going into, basically - just another type of database. Base uses HSQL.
I am just trying to do something more simple than I usually do. Usually I start off complicated. This time I'd like to go simple to start. From there I could learn how to do other things with the operation i designed. AND, I could USE the operation/app to study the bible - which is the MAIN thing I want to do, anyway. I could actually draw nearer to God through the studies. And, then, at the same time be learning more about how to expand/improve the app and what I need to know to do it.
ANyway, though, I should probably go to youtube like you suggested for ideas about his stuff. Are there any books or other learning resources you might point to, also? If I HAVE to learn programming to do this "simple" stuff, If I have to learn programming, I will - if God coninues to lead me on this path. So far I am alone in this. I want my church's backing, and support. But, I thought a real simple thing to show them would be good and worth the time in hope of that support.
Thank you a LOT for your help. I will keep digging around for a simpler way until I give up and have to learn how to write code - etc. I will also study some more what you sent.
Thanks, God Bless You, M. Jaillet
His love is better than life. Psalms
