Sorry this response to converting LOC into MARC records has taken so
long.  I have been waiting for my tech person to help me decipher the
DOS program the LOC give for converting text to MARC.  The short answer
is she couldn't make it work either.  I did receive this info from our
group.
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm no expert here...
I also have no idea what you have done to this point and
hope not to insult your intelligence by recommending this
page...
http://206.217.66.102/locmarc/download.htm

It also links to more specific details if what is on that page
doesn't fix the problem . . .
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

I use Surpass and I always use LC to get records.  After I find the
record I want, I just click on the MARC format, then save as and save
the file to a disk and import it into Surpass.  I do not need to convert

the file with any software.  The only disadvantage is that you can only
import one record at a time.
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks to all who responded.  If I get more info I will forward it to
the group.
