Cross References

I want to set up some bible studies in the TW. I want to use cross-references for each study.

I would like to have the Name of the cross-reference displayed next to the actual cross-reference. That way I can tell what the subject of the bible study is beside the cross reference. Is there a way to do this?

Secondly - Is there a way to display/print a List of all the references for a cross-reference with the full text?

I am not sure what you mean by 'name'. Have you checked the verse lists?
Cross-references have no name associated.
Another solution is just to use a generic book and add these in a topic.

Well, if it is a verse list, yes. The clipboard monitor could be used if you have them one below the other in a module (by creating a temporary verse list).

Here is what I did -

1. Created a Commentary verse list for each Bible study name like - Heaven.
2. Created a cross-reference named - Heaven.
3. Went to each verse in the Bible study and assigned it to the verse list - Heaven and cross-referenced it to the next text and underlined the text.

4. Created a Main Subject list (book) with the Names of all the Bible studies and the beginning verse for each Bible study.

Now I can go to the Main subject list and pick a Bible study and click on the starting text and then I can click my way thru the
Bible study ( I turned on the 'back link' - very nice. This is just the way I have my Bible marked.)

Great software! :D

@rearle: Anny news? If it is to complicate to post screen shots, maybe you could explain it in a more detailed way... It would be very nice.

For instance:
- How did you create a Commentary verse list? What kind of user-Modul?
- How did you create a cross-reference? What kind of user-Modul?
- What do you mean "and cross-referenced it to the next text and underlined the text

Thanks a lot. Obelixus

I found a some answers for my questions. But to be sure, that I'm on the right way, I would like to write it down here, and if there are wrong, I hope somebody will help me.

It means just to create a new User Modul named Commentary, and there to write in the relating bibelverses according to the subject (like Heaven). So for each Subject a new Commentary User Modul?

In the windows "Add cross-reference", when a cross-reference will be joined to a bibelvers, it is possible to open a new "cross-reference" with a special name (like Heaven). As well here, for each Subject a cross-reference named for each subject?

Now I go to the User Modul Commentary "Heaven" where all bibelverses relating to my study "Heaven" are writen down and assign it to the ????

From here I do not see anymore clear? Maybe somebody can help me? But overall it seems me very difficult to handle all the different objects, when I like to do that for let us say 1000 subjects! Or I did not understand it in a prober way.

Thanks in advance!
