This was something I’d hoped to get into the last update, but didn’t get the time to test it; so I got it done now. While at the first MarcEdit User Group meeting at ALA, there was a question about supporting 880 fields when exporting data via tab delimited format. When you use the tool right now, the program will export all the 880 fields, not a specific 880 field. This update changes that. After the update, when you select the 880 field in the Export tab delimited tool, the program will ask you for the linking field. In this case, the program will then match the 880$6[linkingfield], and pull the selected subfield. I’m not sure how often this comes up — but it certainly made a lot of sense when the problem was described to me.
