When we exported our catalog from Follett it removed a space that was in out barcodes so now when we try to scan an item it is not being found because the barcode field in Koha is missing the space. What I have done so far: 1) Export from the items table: itemnumber and barcode 2) Added the space back into the barcode field 3) Created a temp table in the koha db 4) Imported the data into the temp table I now need to move the data from the temp table over to the items table to update the barcode field. Any thoughts? Thanks Ed Edward J. Roche Network Administrator Solanco School District 717.786.2151 x2437 "At the End of the Day, Did You Play to Win or Not to Lose?"
