Implementing this enhancement to the OSIS XML source text is eminently scriptable. <br><br><u>Aside</u>: First, we must ensure that all these instances are tidied up, and consistently wrapped between 2 periods as they are in the printed edition. Please refer to my feedback observations sent to the module team.<br><br>Best regards,<br><br>David
