Very useful, thanks
Your examples confirmed that at least from a MARC point of view, I
hadn't done anything wrong. I've got it displaying in both the staff
and the OPAC, but it's not a live link. We're still in the testing
phase, and I'm running a slightly out of date version (3.00.01.05) on
my Mac at the moment because the VMware version doesn't seem to
update. This may be why it's not working properly. At the moment,
we're concentrating on tweaking the data migration process, and
cleaning up the source data so that it will convert nicely. When we
do the install for real on the server we'll use the the latest
version. But it is nice to know that it will work, once everything is
in place.
