Re: [IUG] Title browse and 505 table of contents...

[Curt Stacey <cstacey at plum dot lib dot il dot us>]

We also have thousands of enriched records using the 505t.  Since we 
upgraded to release 2006 and upgraded to the 2000 indexing standards we 
have been experiencing consistent duplicate search results for long 
titles, and very strange and confusing search results that occur 
randomly.  If we do a title search on "Over The Rainbow" sometimes the 
search results are displayed as "Over The Rainbow" using the correct 
505t field that matches the search string.  At other times, the display 
result is incorrect (however the actual entry records are correct) and 
the first 505t field of the contents group is displayed instead of the 
match on the search string.  In this case, instead of the results being 
"Over The Rainbow" they are mixed up titles such as "Ladybird, 
ladybird," "Hello World," "Braham's Lullaby," ".......................," 
etc.  Innovative is helping us with the problem and our title index is 
being re-indexed.  I'm not sure if this is exactly the same problem that 
you're having, but it seems very similar.  CS

This created a situation where our Title search no longer results in displays that can be easily browsed by title: invisible 505|t's bring up 245's that are out of alphabetical order.
