[DCRM-L] Signing statement in Connexion

[Robert Maxwell]

Are you working in the Connexion Client or the Web version? The web version does use the dollar sign as the subfield symbol and so I could see this might cause problems. The Client accepts a dollar sign as is.

Subject: [DCRM-L] Signing statement in Connexion

Dear colleagues,
I am attempting to include a full collation in a 500 field of an original record. The signing statement begins with $4 for four leaves signed. However, OCLC Connextion reads this as a subfield 4 and refuses to validate the record.

Has anyone encountered this problem and, if so, found a way to finesse the code/symbol issue?

Thanks very much.
