Fwd: Inventory follow-up

[Vicki Sipe <vsipe@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Colleagues
As follow-up to my Inventory Follow-up post.  I neglected to mention what 
version or type of Innovative system we have.  We are using the 
character-based catalog and have not yet updated to D+.  I spent so much 
energy trying to be specific about my problem that I forgot the big picture.
Thanx
