Thanks, Chris. Sorry for the slow reply. 
I'm wondering if our db is just corrupt.
 I've been trying to convince the committee
 to just start with a fresh db, but if we do that
 they want to switch from KOHA so, I thought 
I should pursue the problem some more. 

It seems that all of the dropdowns   
are empty in every field. I tried to look at 
different tables, etc., and could not find any 
case where the page with the drop downs had 
content to select.

Does your company ever repair koha db's for a fee?

Any more ideas? I am very grateful for your help.
