RE: SQL queries of MARC data

["Jeff Campbell" <jcampbell at unc dot edu>]

I'm interested to see the success of other institutions too.  This is one of
the things I'd like to accomplish after we finish implementation.  One of
the challenges to this will be the data structure III using in the Oracle
implementation....there is a lot of BLOB data in them there fields.  One
thing you should ask for from III is the data structure of your Oracle
backend.  Happy querying!

Subject: SQL queries of MARC data

Hello.  We are a brand new Millennium site.  We are running Millennium on an
Oracle database and would like write SQL statements that pull data from the
MARC records.  It seems like this should be easy to do, but we haven't been
able to figure it out and the folks at Innovative, for whatever reason, have
not been forthcoming with the information.  Maybe it's not possible, but I
thought I would poll the gurus, as it seems like it should be one of the
simplest queries possible.  
 
Thanks very much in advance,
