[Koha] MARC Export problem
I am trying to export a group of biblios in order to batch edit them. These are biblios without item records (they are actually components, part of a larger bound volume, not physical items by themselves). But when I go through the steps in MARC export and select item type: component, it produces an empty file. If I select all item types, it only exports biblios with item records attached. Which is precisely the opposite of what I'm trying to do. I also tried selecting 'don't export items' to see if that made a difference. It doesn't. Is there any way I can extract these MARC records, or do I have to fix them all one at a time? We're running 3.04.02.000 - have been too busy with a major move in the past six months to upgrade. If this is a problem that has been fixed in a later version that would be useful to know. -- Elaine Bradtke Data Wrangler VWML English Folk Dance and Song Society | http://www.efdss.org Cecil Sharp House, 2 Regent's Park Road, London NW1 7AY Tel +44 (0) 20 7485 2206 (This number is for the English Folk Dance and Song Society in London, England.

Re: [Koha] MARC Export problem
Elaine, Limit by item type only works for records with items. It does not use the 942$c. I'm not sure there is any way to export only those records. Perhaps your best bet would be to export all records, and then filter out those records that have items? I'd probably convert the export to MARCXML and use a simple XSLT stylesheet for the filtering, but I'm sure MarcEdit has some sort of filtering capability.

Re: [Koha] MARC Export problem
Thanks for the reply Jared My experience certainly bears out that it can't be done.It's frustrating that you can't export records that don't have items. Is there good reason why it would be set up that way? As more oddball collections like ours adopt Koha there may be more demand for the ability to export them. Or, set up some sort of batch edit for biblios within Koha. I think the first option is probably simpler! At any rate, there were only (!) 74 of them so I did them individually.Elaine On Wed, Jan 4, 2012 at 5:16 PM, Jared Camins-Esakov wrote: > Elaine, > > Limit by item type only works for records with items.

Re: [Koha] MARC Export problem
You can export records without item records, just not by specifying an item type. You have to use a different criterion, or, as I do, export all records and filter out the records I don't care about. I am sure it would be possible to add an option "select only records with no items," if someone were interested in sponsoring such a development.

Re: [Koha] MARC Export problem
Exporting didn't work for me. Most of the records I was trying to export were sequential. So I put the first and last biblio numbers in the appropriate boxes, didn't change any of the default parameters or add any other information. It should have exported those records, but the resulting file is empty. 0KB When I export a larger batch - one that includes biblios with items, I only get records for the biblios with items. Somehow these particular records are being excluded from the export. But it's not anything I'm doing. . .Which makes me wonder what it is about these particular records that are causing them to be overlooked in the export process.

A 'No records matched > the specified criteria' message would be the expected behaviour. Do you mean to say that specifying a range of biblio numbers for records that have no attached items should produce a 'no records matched' message? I'm curious as to why it does not match the records - they all have biblio numbers, even though they don't have items. Why does the lack of items prevent the biblio records being exported? I'm not the most techy person at the best of times. Am I missing some vital point, or is it a flaw in the system?
