Thanks for the help Rachel But I am still in the dark !! The parameters/biblio/MARC structure/ create default has Tag, lib, repeatable, mandatory, authorised value, subfields, edit, delete Do I need to define each tag? If I put 100 in the field next to the default or click add tag this is displayed Create framework for () using Default Clicking OK just returns to the original screen and nothing has changed All of the dropdown boxes are blank as is the Tag field What am I doing wrong? _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

Yes, you do. But there is a short cut. The regular Koha installer program (for Linux) gives the option of loading the MARC structure as part of the installation process. Apparently, the current Windows package does not include this data. But the data is still available -- you don't have to enter it all manually. You can download the (MARC 21) file: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/koha/koha/misc/marc_datas/marc21_en/st... This file is a series of MySQL instructions that will insert the MARC structure into your data tables. To use it, login to your mysql program, switch to the Koha database, and from the mysql> prompt type in "source structure_def.sql" (without the quotation marks of course -- and you'll have to prepend the file name with the name of the directory where you stored the file so mysql can find it). There are more detailed SQL loading instructions at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/batch-commands.html -- Stephen Hedges Skemotah Solutions, USA www.skemotah.com -- shedges@skemotah.com _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
