Re: [Macsword-user] reference entry bug

[Manfred B. <man...@gm...>]

Hi Michael.

Thanks for looking into this.

Unfortunately I can't reproduce this at all.
I can type any book name or abbrevation in the reference box with or  
without a number in front as long as I type the first letter of the  
book name with upper case.

If no one else responds here I will write this to the Sword list and  
see if someone else can reproduce this.
The thing is, that we only pass the reference that is typed further to  
the Sword library that delivers the text to it.


Regards,
Manfred
