Tuesday, March 20, 2007 17:35 CDT Hari, Wasn't there something in the past few months about an incompatibility in bulkmarcimport.pl with certain (?) parts of unicode? Would it be possible for you to do a global search and replace for those 3 problem characters (with whatever tools you have on hand) and recode them into MARC8? That might be a work-around for now. Just a thought. When you find your solution, do let the list know. Cheers, Steven F.

Whenever these 3 characters are encountered, the rest of the string (subfield value) is gobbled and is missing from the database. But, bulkmarcimport.pl imports correctly if these 3 characters do not occur in the MARC data to be imported. Any idea whats going on ? Thanks, hari. _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha ============================================================
