When BW 6 shipped the book names file was incomplete for Qumran. In BW you can go to "Help" and click on "BibleWorks on the Internet" then "check for updates." It could be that you still have the older Qumran files. If not, I've provided a book names file as a user database (available at the top thread on the list). You can download that, put it in your "init" file in BW (while BW is closed), open BW and click on "Options" then "Book Names" then "Open" then click on "books_2" then "Open" then Save, and you should be in business.

Thanks Mark that fixed the problem. (Doing it the manual way, auto update didn't ever fix in case you need that for future info)

Another option is to save a little info on each Qumran manuscript into a BW note file and that way it would be readily available to you upon using BW regardless of being connected to the internet or not.

That's a great idea, especially if you included the various ways of referring to the mss. e.g.,
