This is a little frustrating. I don't think that you're missing the big picture, but I think your download might be corrupted if you're not seeing anything at all on Links Koha ---> MARC DB. Out of curiousity, what version of MySQL are you running?<br>
<br>
Here are the MARC fields that I have linked.<br>
<br>
Item number is 952u<br>
itemtype 300f<br>
homebranch is 952b<br>
biblionumber 090c<br>
biblioitemnumber 090d<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
