Dear Linda,
Thanks for your guidance, I am using MARC21... I have converted "Text(Tab delimited).txt" file to .mrk and then .mrc using MarcEdit (followed the steps from http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2010-December/026750.html) ... As far as 952 and 260 field concern I have no idea how I can convert my data in single field trough MarcEdit (like your example: =082 \\$a917.6703/G925a/2000). Please guide me from where I get together my 952 and 260 fields in single line
Regards,
Syed
Sved,
I've never used Excel to migrate MARC but have used MarcEdit and the Import Tool. I can tell you that your first record in MarcEdit looks like:
=LDR 00422nam a2200205Ia 45e0
= 08 2$a001-AYE
=008 111116s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=020 \\$a140135472
=082 \\$219TH ED.
=100 \\$aAYER A. J.
=245 \\$aTHE PROBLEM OF KNOWLEDGE.
=260 \\$aENGLAND
=260 \\$bPENGUIN BOOKS
=260 \\$c1986
=300 \\$a223
=440 \\$nv. 1
=942 \\$cBK
=952 \\$aMAIN
=952 \\$bMAIN
=952 \\$p45594
Everything in a field or tag should be on a single line
The 260 should be like
=260 \\$aEngland$bPenguinBooks$c1986.
The 952 fields should be all one one line like
=952 \\$aMAIN$bMAIN$p45594
There are some other problems with the record not having the correct indicators for MARC21, but I don't know UNIMARC, which I'm assuming you are using, so I can't help you there at all, I'm afraid.
Here is one of ours in MARC21 in MarcEdit for you to look at
