Hello,

I recently posted asking for help with batch editing GMDs using
MarEdit. We we currently use GMDs and will be migrating two new
libraries into our consortium. Their GMDs vary from ours and I want to
edit them to conform to ours.

I got some suggestions to remove the existing GMDs and then use the
RDA helper to generate new GMDs and edit them to conform to our
standards.

I tried this with a test file of 10 large print records. I removed the
existing GMDs for all 10. Then I opened RDA helper and selected
generate GMD. The process completed but nothing changed. No GMD was
added to the records. They are all coded correctly for large print.

What am I missing or doing wrong?
