[DCRM-L] Signing statement [FW: DCRM-L Digest, Vol 139, Issue 7...

[Godfried, J.D.]

Dear colleagues,

The answer to the problem might be: just insert twice the $-sign in your description: the first $-sign is neglected by the system (because it is not followed by a subfield, and the second $-sign is read "as is"). We work with Record Manager (not in Connexion) and this is the way we solve this problem.

Kind regards,

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.

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.

Thank you, Bob. That may well be the issue: I use the Web version. I'll talk to our systems librarian about getting the Client on my office computer.

All best,
