<p class=MsoNormal>Greetings,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>First post…we’ve been running koha for a number
of years, we are at version 1.2.2. Different developers have done some hacking
to it over the years, but now I’d like to try to get us to 2.2.9.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>My guess is the easiest way is to upgrade at this point is a
fresh install, then look to migrate data? I read a post from a while back about
moving from 1.2.x to 2.0 using an upgrade script, would this work still for us
as we are so far behind?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We’ve been digging for a way to export all the data so
it can be imported into a new system and after some effort aren’t exactly
sure how to proceed. Our database contains about 1500 – 2000 books, and
only 60% of them have data in the `marc` field…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We’d really appreciate any guidance you can provide.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
