Well, Innovative replied to my call saying there *had* been problems with it not 
being protected, but they should be resolved now. I've just tested it and the 
field IS now protected, but the problem was that even though it DOES now show up 
when you look at the table through Barb's route (mgmt info / info about system / 
codes used / marc load tables / patron record) it still DOESN'T show up on the 
way I was looking at the load table (additional system functions / alter system 
parameters / system codes / set system options / database maintenance / edit 
overlay protection list / patron record). I've had this problem before, where 
these 2 routes don't lead to the same info, even though they should! So, 
something still not *quite* right, but circactive is being protected so that's 
the most imprtant thing :-)

Thanks to all for suggestions, confirmation of problem, etc

Lesha :-)
