Problems Importing ISO Files - andPFTFormats</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Dear Jean-Claude, Dear Egbert, Dear Maria
Mercedes</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>first of all I would like to thank you and all
the Isis-users group for your kindness and valuable help. This is indeed a
very special community and it is really wonderful to have so many friends all
around the world!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>(Maria Mercedes I cannot send mail to your email
address - I get a NDR message: can you please check your
email-address?)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The CDS-ISIS/WinIsis database "TECA" is the main
one in use in many italian libraries (and it is created and supported by DBA,
the italian official ISIS distributor). The FDT is a bit complex: the first 8
fields (+subfields) match with the 8 international ISBD (M) areas. The other
fields are added to complete the bibliographic description - and for other
reasons. Many fields are repeatable.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The formatting language used to manage repeatable
fields is the standard 'CDS-ISIS' one, based -if needed- on the use
of the repeatable literals, enclosed in vertical bars (|), eventually preceded
or followed by a '+' sign ( +|xxx|) or (|xxx|+).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In the standard pft formats we never use to
select a single occurrence of a subfield of a given field (e.g.
V12^a[1]), because usually all the occurrences are
displayed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In a multi-volume book we use a "one-to-many"
description, based on field 27 (in the first level description it is the link
to all second level descriptions - a repeatable field) and on field 28 (in the
second level descriptions, linking back to the main one). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>In PFT formats the REF (L...) function is used to
display:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>- "all" the second level (=parts)
descriptions Part.1 AND Part.2 And...(when displaying the main record, or
searching a term contained in the main description), </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>or:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>- the main record description and "only" the
single selected second level description Part.1 OR Part.2 OR
....(when displaying the result of a query of a term contained only in a
single second level description of the main one). </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Actually the main problems importing into JISIS
are:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>1. when a single subfield of a field is
repeated (using the '%' mark), the JISIS import wizard cuts the first part of
the field (e.g V1 contains: ^axxx^byyy^czzz%^bwww^cttt ; in that case all
^axxx^byyy^czzz is missing - in the database(!), not only in the display
format). On the other hand, it seems that if you repeat a whole field from the
beginning, the import is OK (e.g. V12 is: ^axxx^byyy%^awww^bzzz - all the
subfields are imported correctly). (The import into the old CDS-ISIS or
WinIsis worked well in both cases)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>2. in the pft format the REF function is not
working well; I tried also REF(L('Z=',V27)) - sometimes it displays only the
first occurrence in V27</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I attach the field def. table TECA.FDT and the
fst TECA.FST and </FONT>I attach also the standard TECA.pft , the most
complete (and complex!) display format in "TECA" database.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Tomorrow I'll try to select and send you the
*.iso export of some records showing these problems during the import
process.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>

<DIV>Dear Guizzo,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Could you please explain how you use repeatable subfields in
ISiS/WinISIS. I mean in PFTs. Do you think that extending PFTS language with
subfields occurrences such as:</DIV>
<DIV>(V12^a) ->all V12^a subfields occurrences</DIV>
<DIV>V12^a[1] -> occurrence 1 of subfield a field 12</DIV>
<DIV>Any other ideas ?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I will check yr problem with the REF function </DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi Jean-Claude</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>many thanks -again- for your
reply.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>As for repeatable fields, you are certainly
right: but the fact is that, for some reason, we and many other
users here used to insert the % mark every time they needed to repeat
the same field, or the same subfield delimiter, or a previous subfield
delimiter (or a sequence of previous subfield delimiters) in a specific
field. I think it was on the basis of a "hint" on pag. 92 of the
old "Mini-micro CDS/ISIS Reference manual Version 2.3" by Giampaolo Del
Bigio - (1989).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Anyway, I tried to change the data removing
the % mark in a limited number of records in the Title field, and the
import seems now to work correctly. I'll make some test again to be sure
that a sort of global change deleting all the % marks in the database
will <SPAN id=result_box lang=en class=short_text b="4" a="undefined"

</FONT></SPAN></SPAN>work, also if a 'group of subfields' are being
repeated.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I'm still having problems with the REF
function. :-( </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Tag V27 (indexed as "Z=...") is a
repeatable field - I need to display all the records linked to the main
one in a hierarchical relationship "one to many" (Tag V28 is the
equivalent one in the "second-level" description records). The "old"
syntax "(REF(L(|Z=|V27),...etc..." worked well both in ISIS-DOS and
Winisis. I tried to change the format as you explained
REF(L('Z=V27')...) (?), also with some minor changes, but I get no data
or at most only the first record linked to the main one, and not all the
others. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I attach to this mail the "original"
PRI.FST format used in TECA database (imported in JISIS with minor
changes) just to explain what I am talking about.</FONT></DIV>

the PFTs but it should correspond to what you have in your data, i.e.
if you have ^aTitle in your data, it should be ^a. It's only a global
change in your PFTs.</FONT></DIV>
