Psalms is such a large book, how can I limit the search to just a certain block of chapters? On the main dialog I either have to search the entire book or the current chapter.

You can use the priorities option to select chapters for a search:

  • Click on Choose...
  • Click on the Priorities tab
  • Click on Define priorities..
  • Click on a book in the left pane (for example PSA)
  • Click on PSA in the right panel and a chapter selection window will appear
  • Choose the chapters you want to search on 
  • Click OK to close the Define dialog
  • Select the priority you want to use for the search and click OK to close the Books to Search dialog
  • The search will now use those chapters
