Counting MARC Tags in Data Exchange

When you choose to count the MARC tags in a file of MARC records, the system lists

• which MARC tags the file contains.
• how many times each tag appears.

Counting the MARC tags provides a "snapshot" of the file contents. Counting tags can help you decide quickly whether the records are likely to conform to your library's standards and be complete.

To count MARC tags in a file:

1. Select a file.
2. Choose Tools | View a File.
3. In the file view window, choose Tools | Count.

To print the Counting Tags dialog box, choose the Print button.
