Hello all,

I have a file of almost 20,000 bib records that I can't seem to open in the
MarcEditor.  I break the file using MarcBreaker and when I choose to edit
the records, a blank window opens and the program hangs for about 5 minutes
before I give up.  Some of the records in the file contain Hebrew
characters.  Could that be breaking the Breaker, so to speak?  I've tried
breaking the file and translating it to UTF-8 and I've tried breaking the
file without any translation.  Either way the program hangs up when I try to
open the editor to view and edit the records.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can get at this file?

Thanks,

Nora
