Maybe this will help Bernadette and others.
In my Koha 2.2.1, I am able to enter 'c' and other data in 260$c, such as:
$c c2000
$c 2000, c1999
$c 0200 [i.e., 2000]
$c 2000 Dec. 17
The marc_subfield_table's subfieldvalue is varchar 255 (which seems excessive, but...)
The MARC record retains these values! I imported records with the extra info in this
field and it's there and looks fine.
In the NPL-theme opac, it even displays *in MARC view*!
HOWEVER, it gets chomped in the normal view.
The chomping seems to take the first four numbers it finds and displays them:
c2000 ---> 2000
2000, c1999 ---> 2000
0200 [i.e., 2000] ---> 0200
2000 Dec. 17 ---> 2000
So it seems that it's not a matter of Koha's MySQL structure, it's
a matter of how Koha retrieves the data and displays it.
