Thanks for the prompt reply. Pity, but not the end of the world. I am writing an application that combines Scripture, my own text, graphics, real time handwritten notes and annotations, as well as video clips in a presenter/presentation ( dual screen) type display. for the moment I can cope with my 23 3rd party .bblx's, but I will be looking for a 3rd party version of the KJV, Message as well as God's Word translation. I have been attempting to do this from the time that e-Sword uses Access as their database, but could not get anybody to help me with the passwords (silly me, I thought that because the KJV was Public domain, it would be open to everybody)

This Web site, and your tutorials have really been a blessing to me.

At last!! This is just what i had been looking for.
One question:
when I select the 'Scripture field' from the 'Bible' table, it comes back as a BYTE Array. At first i thought the array represented the ASCII values of the characters of the scripture, but then found that it had values representative of the extended ASCII table, so no go there. How do I go about decoding the 'Scripture' blob field to text?
