Amazing! If I were creating a website, with the idea that people could post things to it, I'd have a link or button for 'Post'. but, I'm sure there's a lot that I don't understand. Isn't it amazing, all the things you have to understand, to do the simplest things?

Anyway, this is the 1st part of the source code for an OCLC Connexion cataloging macro. It's 3600+ lines, including lots of whitespace and comments, so it wouldn't all fit. Plus, it seems to get formatted automatically in a completely unhelpful way. If you can get past that, and use this by tailoring it to your library, go for it. yes, I wrote all of it.

=============================================

'NOTE1: IsNumeric doesn't seem to work as advertised. I made a function, IsNumber ' that does.


' MODIFICATIONS/VERSIONS (Better late than never.) '=================================================== ' 5/21/4 - When this program runs, users have already copied the .b# from III, ' and they paste it into the CatME record after CatER ends. CatER ' copies the .b# from the clipboard, puts it into fBNumber, puts it ' into the recs/bin 949 line, and then clears the clipboard.

' 6/2/4 - Changed label printing, to go through View menu. It's a shorter, ' command. Also, if there's no holding library entered for a branch, ' this method makes that clear. With the old method, the label simply ' wouldn't print, if there were not a holding library for that branch.

' 6/18/4 - Fixed infinite loop bug in Sub SixFifties; also set that sub up to warn users ' if there are no 650 0 (2nd indicator = 0) or 650 1 (2nd indicator = 1) in ' a juvenile record

' 6/21/4 - Went back to old label printing method because, for some people, the sendkeys ' timing didn't work, and they had a print dialog box they had to close manually.

' 8/24/4 - Put in a check to make sure fBnumber$, which is read from the clipboard, actually ' holds a bibliographic record number. It has to be about the right length, start ' with a 'b', contain numbers etc. Otherwise it's set to NULL. So now, nobody ' will wind up pasting whatever the last thing they cut & pasted during that day, ' into the recs/bin line. ALSO: a messagebox tells user there's no bib rec number.

' 9/9/4 - This program deletes C:\CatLabel\records.txt, then creates a new version to hold ' the new record. It creates a new file by printing the record to that file. In ' Tools > Options > Record Print, the checkbox that indicates it should go to that ' file MUST be checked. If it's not, the record is printed to the default printer ' instead, and the new file is never created. The change is to verify that that ' file exists, after the new record is printed. If not, user is informed, and ' program ends.


' 9/10/4 - Made doSpellCheck% boolean variable, that starts out FALSE, and is set ' TRUE just before Done: label. Then, spellchecking is called only if ' doSpellCheck% is set TRUE. So spellchecking should only happen if this ' program runs correctly, instead of also running when it doesn't run ' correctly.

' 10/1/4 - In sub SizeCheck, changed the automatic designation of monographs w/ call# ' beginning with M9, where 9 is any number, as oversize, ONLY FOR SPECIAL ' COLLECTIONS. Size of book must be checked for oversize & folio. For all ' other locations, M9 still makes it automatically oversize.

' 10/25/4 - Changed Faculty Publications choice, under OTHER, and as requested by Christina ' to put Archives at top of call number label, instead of Faculty Publications.


' 11/8/4 - Stop NACR from being printed at the bottom of labels, when Other > Special ' Storage is chosen, for location/branch

' 11/19/4 - A message to user, sent when a multivolume set included discs, was in error. ' "|n & 1 disc |u d" becomes "|c & 1 disc |u d"

' 11/22/4 - Installed inputbox at point where user is informed there's no .b# in the ' the clipboard, to put into the record for overlaying. That lets user quit ' program right there if s/he wants to. ' - RELATED: Program only clears the clipboard if program runs normally. ' - Made program read MemoryER.txt right off, so that it would have that information ' in case some problem ends the program, so that it could be written back to ' MemoryER.txt. That write happens after the Done: label ' - Made program provide an option to quit the program, if ff, call#, and 260 dates ' don't match.

' 2/5 - Adapted this program for Connexion ' 2/28/5 - Barcodes now added to Special Collections Materials
