I created a new configuration for QlikView scripts(*.qvs) by copying the SQL configuration and updating it with differences. I wanted to export this syntax file to share with others, but when I do I only get 4 keywords in the file. When I export the SQL config syntax I get everything. This occurred in the old as well as latest version(9.14).

QVS...

#Keyword color=4,word=on,rightall=off,case=off,insidetag=off,regexp=off,rightall2=on
ABORT
Num

#Keyword color=4,word=off,rightall=off,case=off,insidetag=off,regexp=off,rightall2=off
TEXT
NTEXT


SQL ...

#Keyword color=4,word=on,rightall=off,case=off,insidetag=off,regexp=off,rightall2=off
ABORT
ABS
ACCEPT
ACCESS
ADD
ADD_MONTHS
ADDCOL
ADVISE_COMMIT
ADVISE_NOTHING
ADVISE_ROLLBACK
AGGREGAT
ALL
ALLOCATE_UNIQUE
ALTER
ALTER_COMPILE
ANALYZE
ANALYZE_OBJECT
ANALYZE_SCHEMA

I tried to reproduce your issue with EmEditor 9.14 and fresh Windows on Virtual PC, but I could not reproduce your issue. What I did was:

1. I installed EmEditor Professional 9.14 on fresh Windows XP2 on Virtual PC.
2. Run EmEditor, select Tools menu > Select Configuration > Define Configurations.
3. Select SQL and click "Copy" button to create "SQL2" configuration.
4. Double-click SQL2 to open SQL2 properties, and then click "Highlight (1)" tab.
5. Click "Add" button to add a new keyword called "123".
6. Click "Export" button to export keywords, named as "test.esy".
6. Close all dialog boxes, and open test.esy. I saw all SQL keywords plus "123".

If my procedure is different from yours, please advise me. I want to reproduce your issue and fix that problem. Thank you.

This is a strange one. Your steps seem to be the way I created mine originally. I had done it several versions ago, so I am not sure exactly. I created a new config following your steps and it worked fine. I went back to original and it still was not exporting all.
Then I removed the Num and ABORT keywords and exported again. No luck. I then removed the ABS keyword...success!
I tried putting these back again and it is still working, but they are at the bottom of the list now.
Anyway, thanks for your quick response. It is working so I am stoked. Let me know if you want me to try anything.

There was a related bug with several minor versions ago (v9.0x or v9.1x), so if this issue happend several minor versions ago, I believe it was fixed. If you don't have any issues with newest version (v9.14 or 9.15), the issue shouldn't happen again. However, if you still have the issue with the latest version, please don't hesitate to ask me again. Thank you for posting your issues.
