KJV version

[PreacherBruce]

I have SwordSearcher 7.2. I'd like to know which version of the KJV is used within it (Oxford? Cambridge? Date?).

Thanks.

Brandon,
Do you have a list of the words with speling variations among the versions? I would be interested in it since some are essentially unifying, standardizing variants (e.g., soape, soap) while others may indicate a distinct meaning. For instance, I always understood inquire/inquiry to be more of information gathering while enquire and enquiry to be more of a thing related to a personal interest and a kind of informal investigation on a matter. So inquire is more of what an indifferent person (e.g., a reporter) would do but enquire is what someone who had a vested interest in a matter would do and I believe the Scriptures will bear this out. This is why I thought the Scriptures spelled it this way. (i.e., not just British & American orthography distinctions)
