This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------1B532F8AC20DA72B60BCDB34 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; x-mac-type="54455854"; x-mac-creator="4D4F5353" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear LM Netters: I hope that one of you will be able to give me some guidance on how to download Marc records from a database such as the Library of Congress or the Texas TLC database and then import them into my library system as one file. I am using a Macintosh and don't know how to join all of the marc files into one file to be imported into our library system. I realize that I could turn my Mac into a PC using Virtual PC and then run Mitinet and it would work that way. However, I would like to bypass the whole Mitinet thing. I have no problem downloading them each record at a time. However, when I import them then I would have to import them every record at a time and this could get confusing and would be time consuming. Is there a way in Macintosh to combine files into one file. I am familar with zipping, but not sure if this would work. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Also, I am posting this message for another librarian in our district. Please respond to me privately by e-mail. Does anyone have Library World by Casper for your automation system? If so, have you received Mitinet warnings: "Fields 100, 245, 260, 852 are of questionable length"? We can see nothing wrong & don't understand "questionable length". -- Brad Riffel River Road High School Library Rt. 9 Box 1 Amarillo, TX. 79108 806-383-1171 wildcat@tcac.net --------------1B532F8AC20DA72B60BCDB34 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="wildcat.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Brad Riffel Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="wildcat.vcf" begin:vcard n:Riffel;Brad tel;fax:806-381-7818 tel;work:806-3831171 x-mozilla-html:TRUE adr:;;;;;; version:2.1 email;internet:wildcat@tcac.net x-mozilla-cpt:;1 fn:Brad Riffel end:vcard --------------1B532F8AC20DA72B60BCDB34-- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
