There are three features to note when importing/exporting marc
files with Cisis or Winisis, etc using ISO 2709 standard<br>
<ol>
<li>length of the line, wich in Isis is 80 chars (default) but
you can modify it using 0 or marc</li>
<ul>
<li>including the end of line control, Isis uses two chars
(LF+CR) by default or only one char in .mrc files</li>
</ul>
<li>subfield deliminter, which is <b> ^ </b> in Isis, but in
marc it is a non representable ascii char (below 32) \asc 29
in .mrc</li>
<li>leader bytes transfered in the first 20 bytes of the ISO
file, and is not accesible neither in Winisis or Pft</li>
</ol>
<p>Items 2 and 3 are implemented in Winisis, but item 3 is a
feature only of CISIS<br>
</p>
<p>Therefore when you want to get the three items you have to do
it using MX command, <br>
I'd recommed to use 1660 version or MX, because it gets all the
leader bytes<br>
</p>
<p>Let's say you want to import a .mrc file, from Library of
Congress or Gutenberg project, <br>
<br>

now -all tell=100</big></b></font><br>
</p>
<ol>
<li><b><big><font color="#990000"><font face="Courier New,
Courier, monospace">iso=marc=source.mrc</font> </font></big></b><big><font

color="#3333ff"><font color="#000000"> you need this
parameter so you move leader bytes into conventional
field v30xx</font></font></big></li>
<li><font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace"><b><big><font
color="#009900">gizmo=gizdelim</font></big></b></font>
this is a gizmo to convert the delimiter \asc32 into our loved
^ as delimiter</li>
</ol>
If you don't have this gizmo you can create it with the following
instruction<br>
<br>
<big><font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">mx null count=1
"proc='a1/1F/a11/hex/a2/^/'" create=gizdelim</font></big><br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I want to import the catalogue of Project Gutenberg. It is
available as a MARC file. I used the following mx command to
convert is to isis.<br>
mx iso=marc=gutenberg.iso create=dbn now -all<br>
<br>
It seems to work ok, but when looking at the data, I notice that
the ^ is not converted to isis format. It just shows<br>
<br>
245 14 aTitle h[electronic resource] bStatement of
responsibility<br>
<br>
I see there are options for the import of the MARC file, but I do
not know how to use them to get the ^ before the subfield.<br>
<br>
Please help me with the correct format.<br>
Thanks<br>
Renate<br>
