I haven't tried running MarcEdit in Wine. I've been amazed at what Wine will run.
Thanks for the email. Quick answer: it doesn't (or at least not when we last tried), something to do with versions of .NET -- and I do have Wine installed to use this trusty old Eudora email client which I've been using since 1989 in various incarnations :=} Best - Paul

HI Sandeep, I don't know much about it, but may be this can help, Is your excel sheet have three sheets? then delete the two extra empty sheets in that file and save as the file in text(tab delieted) format. marc edit support more text(tab delimeted) format. Then try to convert by marc edit in text delimated in addins.
A couple of years ago we tried to use Office97 (we've never had a more recent version) to do just that -- but ended up using OpenOffice|LibreOffice to open and save the Excel files as tab-delimited .csv files. Excel appeared to have difficulties with UTF8 and special characters.
Disclaimer: Terry Reece has done an apparently marvelous job developing MarcEdit; we've never been able to run recent versions as our old Windows laptop is more of a museum exhibit than a useful tool. I would strongly suggest joining the list at <http://metis3.gmu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=MARCEDIT-L>.
As an aside, has anyone managed to get MarcEdit to function on a Linux box? We have failed miserably.

There's an excellent support list for MARCEDIT called MARCEDIT-L. Â Terry Reese, the author of the program monitors the list, and he will often offer solutions along with some of the other list subscribers.

It's also a good way to give input on features you'd like to see or
to find
out whether someone already has solved a particular problem you're having.

As marcedit is proprietary software, unfortunately the only person who is likely to be able to help is the marcedit author, unless someone else has seen and solved it before.
