It might prove useful to look at the records in MarcEdit first - http://marcedit.reeset.net/ to look at your download to check that it is what you expect. It will also validate the MARC which could help you spot a problem. I export and import files all the time into 3.14 and as long as the MARC is valid it works. I don't know if saving it in notepad is causing a problem, but MARC is not plain text. To use your .mrc file in MarcEdit, you have to 'break' it into human readable text. The tutorials are helpful - http://marcedit.reeset.net/tutorials On Tue, May 13, 2014 at 2:00 AM, Elizabeth Wilcox <ewilcox@metier3.com.au>wrote:
Hello!
I have been unsuccessfully trying to export records from Koha 2.2.9 by going to Marc Biblio Export; selecting a call number range, clicking export and saving the file in notepad (not sure what program to use). The resulting file has a .mrc extension so I am presuming it is a Marc file, there is also data there. However, when I try to import it into version 3.14.05 it isn't being recognised.
The steps I am following in version 3.14.05 are as follows:
* Stage MARC records for Import
* Select the file (koha.mrc)
* Upload file The screen then briefly flashes 0% loading and then disappears. In Staged MARC management there is then no data.
Any thoughts?? Thanks Liz _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
