I have been trying to convert some files created using e-sword 8.x - a memory.mem file and a prayer.prl file to the newer formats of memx and prlx.
I downloaded and installed esword9 converter program, and ran it. However, when I try to convert these two files, it asks for a password. I created these two files. I thought they as they are just my memory verses and prayer notes, that they would not contain any copyrighted material (doesn't the memory verse file only store references?). What am I doing wrong?
(It would be ironic if I did not even remember setting a password on a memory verse file).

If there's nothing sensitive (that you don't mind me seeing) in your files, I can take off the password and convert to 9.x. I don't know why either of those would have a password.

At least one version of e-Sword 7.x, by default, password protected those files.

Yeah, it was that old, familiar e-Sword password, probably auto-generated since I've seen it before. He's back in business now.

Rick has given that password to me at least twice. I never can remember what it is. I found it much easier to open password protected files without putting the password in, than remembering the password, and using it to open the file.

Thanks Josh and Jonathon. It did convert the files wonderfully. I wonder, considering that it is a common password, and that it does not protect anything that is copyright, can the password be published?Yeah, it was that old, familiar e-Sword password, probably auto-generated since I've seen it before. He's back in business now.
It was good to get the prayer file back into use. Unfortunately when I started using the memory verse file, I found that although the data was complete and editable, the testing (learning) function was no longer available. It looks like the conversion process somehow corrupted part of the data to stop it from being tested. This is a shame. Has anyone else found this to be the case?
Still, thanks for your help.

I don't think it's a secret. You can download free software to open up any Access password protected database by just googling it. The software will even tell you the password. You can drag and drop an Access 97/200- database into a text editor and view it's contents. It's about as secure as box of crackerjacks. I've been just giving people the password when they ask for it for it for their personal files.
