Description:
We have a browse search for OCLC number in our web OPAC which I need to adjust for the new 9-digit OCLC numbers. The bib library tab_filing has had the following (to prevent having to enter leading zeroes when searching for the number):

22 expand_num 8

We have changed this to:

22 expand_num 9

But we find that the existing numbers are not searchable. How can we fix this?

Resolution:
The OCLC numbers which have been indexed with "expand_num 8" in tab_filing will be searchable with "expand_num 9" only after they are re-indexed.

(Note: In order to make the tab_filing change take effect, you need to stop ue_01 (util e/2) and then restart it (util e/1.)

In order to re-index all of the records, you will need to run p_manage_05.
