I know it is bad manners to answer your own question - especially if you

" Subject:  [Koha] Dewey entry
  Date:     Wed, 17 Apr 2002 09:42:50 +1000

 I am in the process of migrating items from our
 current library system into koha and I have a
 question about Koha Dewey entries.

 When adding Dewey entry for new biblio I note two
 fields:  "Dewey" and "Dewey Subclass"

 All our current entries follow this format:

 JSM 428.007 WEN
 JSM 362.2 TOP 
 JSM 170 VER

 ...and so on...

 What is the correct way to enter above data into
 the Koha Dewey field(s)?
