[bt-devel] Proposed change for BibleTime

[Gary Holmlund]

Daniel,

On the previous message I told you the wrong directory to find the 
"Sword" directory.

On your command window type:

         echo %APPDATA%

It will probably say:

        C:\Users\garyh\AppData\Roaming

This is where the "Sword" dir is. Sorry for the confusion.

Gary
