Hi Lynn, I would be more than happy to help with the Greek. I attach a file with all book names in greek in 3 forms: 1. Full book name version 1 2. Full book name version 2 3. Abbreviated book names These are the ones used in "The Word".
The association is obvious. There is also a translation for "Search Phrase" and "Count". The "GO" cannot be translated with such a short word, so you could use an image or one character (e.g ">"). The file is encoded in win1253 (the same to iso-8859-7). Greek windows charset is 161 (GREEK_CHARSET), which you should set in the tree navigation component font to correctly display greek (and the static). I can test this easily.
