[Isis-users] Reformat with mx

[Piet De Keyser]

Francisco,

Take these steps:


  1.  Create a file using notepad with this content:

'd700',
('<700>'|^a|v700'</700>'/)

Save it under e.g. the name author.prc


  1.  Use mx this way:

mx database proc=@author.prc<mailto:proc=@author.prc> -all now

(“database” should be the name of your database)

Maybe for safety export the result first into a new database:

mx database proc=@author.prc<mailto:proc=@author.prc> create=test now -all

If you are satisfied with the result you can rename the database test into your database.

Dear Colleagues,

I've been struggling with mx/proc commands. I just want to reformat my data on the author field (v700) by inserting a subfield delimiter (^a) before the author's name. The said field is repeatable. How do I do this using the mx utilities?

Thank you and stay safe everyone!

Regards,
Francisco
