[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Editing Fixed Fields

[Hardy, Elaine]

Interesting -- before the bug was with placement of the values in the grid
and not in 008. Eng might be spread across several input wells, for
example.

I checked the fixed bug list for 1.6
(http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=feature_list_1_6_0) and did
not see anything that specifically addressed the fixed field. Since we are
not on that version yet, I can't address the issue directly, perhaps
someone else is experiencing it and can?

Thanks for responding Elaine,
We are using 1.6.0.2 and editing in the grid.  Then in the 008 field for
language we'll get additional letters ie. "e en eng"

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?

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
