Hi Terry,

I had a bit more a look and worked out what the issue was.  The original MARC file from the vendor had 3 blank spaces at the end of the Leader, which actually made that field the correct length and so all of the other fields displayed correctly.  When I edited the Leader, I didn't realise that the blank spaces existed, so my Leader became 3 characters too long and caused problems with the rest of the fields.

Thank you,
