[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Editing Fixed Fields

[Hardy, Elaine]

Anne,

What version of Evergreen are you using? It was a bug in earlier versions
and had been fixed. We are on 1.4.0.7 and it doesn't occur (it was fixed
much earlier, I thought)

Also, are you editing in the grid or directly in the 008?

Elaine

This follows up on the thread "Question modifying fixed fields in a MARC
record"

We've noticed that after editing a fixed field such as adding "eng" in
Lang field, after clicking on "Save Record" the
"eng" disappears in the Lang field and strange letters appear in other
fixed fields, for example "ng" in Ills field, "ne" in the Ctry field and
"e e" in the Date 2 field.

Is this a bug that needs to be fixed?

Have others experienced this, or found ways to get around it?

Thanks
