No, I don't think this is the problem here.  Both the modules mentioned 
work perfectly and all the books are readable when they are started up.  
The problem only occurs when BibleTime is re-started with an av11n 
module in a tab or window.  I am certain it will prove to be a 
'bookkeeping' problem.  As an example, if CPVD is opened and set to 
Wisdom 1:1, the text is correctly rendered in the window and on 
shutdown, _startup_.xml contains the following entry:

<BIBLE windowSettings="11007" hasFocus="0" writeWindowType="0">
<GEOMETRY width="321" x="642" y="0" height="795" isMaximized="0"/>
<MODULES separator="|" list="CPDV"/>
<KEY name="Wisdom 1:1"/>
<SCROLLBARS vertical="0" horizontal="0"/>
</BIBLE>

However, on re-starting, the window opens, but there is no text in that 
window, and text is only shown when opening books conforming to those in 
'canon.h'.  This is why I'm certain that the problem in in BibleTime 
rather than the engine or the module.  The required KEY will not be 
available until the canon data has been re-read into its buffer.

God bless,        Barry.
