In Topic: Download of Hebrew OT - Westminster Leningrad Codex

Yes, the install went very well. Downloading of all the modules inside MySword and the ones from your site went very well. The only issue I had in the whole process was the Hebrew text thing. I am a happy camper. In Church this morning I was able (Deluxe version) to have up Malachi in KJV, KJV with Strongs, Dictionary and Commentary in four windows all synced and working like a charm while the pastor preached and I studied his texts. (I'm a retired minister, I mostly use the study tools now for my own continued growth.)

Peter, I know I have beaten this horse, but again, thanks for the time you put in on this site. It is really great work.

To any others who may stumble upon this post. With Kindle Fire I cannot find an answer to the WLC Hebrew text problem.. All of the data on the database is right. The MySword support people only say that it is fixed in Honeycomb and ICS android systems. I have asked the Kindle Fire support people if there are any plans to upgrade their software for the same kind of fixes. ... awaiting reply.

I am leaving it with the MySword people to answer. Since Raymond showed that the text in the database read in the proper order, I tried toggling the RightToLeft field from 1 to 0 to see what it would do. It only moved the verse number from the right side to the left side of the text ... the text was still reading left to right.

I am going to try my own hand at some conversion ideas. I'll let you know if I have success so that other users can piggyback onto it.

Thanks, again.

Thanks, Peter. When I said what I did, it occurred to me that Raymond said his database showed the text correctly. Above, I should have said the "RightToLeft" field was value=1 ... Since his text in the database looked correct, I tried to change the RightToLeft to "0" ... all that happened was that the verse number got put on the right side of the text rather than the left. The text was still backwards.

I have asked MySword ... just keeping you up to date for any future reference ideas.

Blessings!

Thanks for the help I have received. What I have discovered: in looking at the Hebrew Text, WLC version in the database, the LefttoRight field is correctly marked as true "1" ... so whatever is going on with it must be in MySword itself. I am going to run it by their support people.

BTW, SqlLite for the PC kept hanging up on me. I found an add-on version for FireFox that has more features and works more smoothly ... FYI.

Thanks,
Frank
