Jason,

Yes, I've used it several times to produce large numbers of MARC records from Excel files. The preview screen when you're setting it up only shows one row as a guide to configuring the conversion but once processed the resulting MARC file should have the right number of records. I did a case study of one example for an event last year, the ppt of which is here, if it helps: http://www.cilip.org.uk/sites/default/files/documents/meehan_case_study_marc_file_from_spreadsheet.pptx

Cheers,

Tom

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] processing more than one row using delimited text translator

Hi there,

Starting a substantial processing job using MarcEdit's delimited text translator and exploring my options. 

I've created a csv file with a number of records and saved them as tab delimited files with UTF-8 character encoding using NeoOffice. Field mapping seems to work fine but the processor only evaluates and emits the first row. Can the translator process more than one row? The MarcEdit documentation uses a file with a single record but other documentation (e.g. Koha, OCLC) uses example file with more than one row. 

Running latest release on Yosemite. 

Thanks, Jason Loeffler
