Alright, I’ve been doing a little bit of interface work on the 5.0 MarcEditor to make editing 006/008 fields easier for users.  So, I’ve made the following changes: 006/008 Editing Windows.  These are found under the Edit menu in the MarcEditor.  It will edit an existing field or generate a new field.   A couple of…

Alright, I just uploaded a new version of MarcEdit 5.0 that includes a bug fix, an enhancement and some new functionality in the setup program (that I’ve tested, but will be interested in hearing if anyone has problems with the new functions). Here are the changes: Bug Fix:  Preview pane had a bug relating to…

Ok, so MarcEdit includes an RSS reader…great.  So what do folks want to see me do with it.  I’ve been starting to work on a feed reader that would allow users to place feeds from journals into a scheduler so one could generate MARC records for new article titles as they are posted.  I’ve also…

I’ve posted an update — its a small update (blame the holidays), but includes a couple of things that will help new installations. Changes: 1) I’ve added code to the Setup Program that will check for the .NET Framework 1.1 and the MDAC 2.7 components. Each of which are required for MarcEdit to run correctly.…

One of the things that I’ve been trying to do is figure out how to get more information to the MarcEdit users — particularly information regarding updates, tutorials, etc. Well, since I’ve started…

One of the new features in MarcEdit 5.0 is the ability to verify URLs for data within specific fields, or every field within a group of MARC records. Its actually a pretty cool little feature. Essentially, one access the function by selecting Add-ins/Verify URLs from the Main Window. When selected, you will see the following…

Alright — another new build. 🙂 This build includes a small tweak to the MarcEditor add/delete functions. Essentially, some new lines were being inserted into the results file. Its not a problem since the program will ignore the blank lines — but I wanted to clean this up. Also, this build includes a help reader…

Now that I’m getting closer to removing the beta “tag” from the program, there will likely be a few more frequent refreshes over the next few weeks. I’ll try to note what’s changed so folks can decide if they want to keep up to date. Shortly, I’m going to be updating the setup program itself…
