Hi Kim
Thanks for your respond, and I am using DSpace 1.7.2.

Hi Lewatle,
What version of DSpace are you running? If you're using DSpace 1.7.0 or later,
I could help you out with a curation task I wrote to perform a very similar
task... it's much nicer and safer (and easier to reuse) than doing it manually
in SQL, and can be run via the UI on a single item, a collection of items, a
community of items, or even the entire repository!
We've added access rights curation tasks to our regular thesis and research
output workflow, and they're working well so far, because they can perform
bitstream restriction and populate dc.rights at the same time. Since it sounds
like you're going 100% Open Access, your tasks will be even easier because they
only need to populate metadata fields.
Another, more "ad-hoc" way of doing this is exporting the item metadata you
want to update as CSV, filling out the dc.rights column with "2 Publicly
Accessible", then importing the metadata back into DSpace. It's also easy to
revert since your original export could be treated as a 'backup'.
Sorry this isn't an exact answer to your question -- just providing some
non-SQL alternatives to achieving what you want... and they will guarantee that
your indexes are updated, proper errors are thrown if a problem is encountered,
etc...
Cheers!
Kim

Hi All
I want to open closed collections or items and make them available to public
viewing, I have saw on the following link that is possible:
http://www.ndltd.org/standards/metadata/etd-ms-v1.1.html#dc.rights I thought is
a column in metadata * tables and I have opened tables to see if they have this
column so I can change values to 2 = publicly accessible, any advice is
appreciated.

Lewatle
