    Description:
    One of our catalogers just found that when they use Print/Send from GUI Search results, choosing"MARC Tags" as the format, It is printing only the document number, and not the rest of the record. This should be printing format 001.

    When I look at the printout, I see that it is trying to use format "0-1" instead of "001".

    Print/Save records from web OPAC in MARC tags format 001 is working just fine.

    Note: We later found that the problem occurs with the format in the first PF line in the xxx01 pc_tab_sear.eng. If this is the "MARC tags" 001, it occurs with that, but if you make another PF the first, the problem occurs with that one instead.

    Resolution:
    We find that this problem occurs with the version 18 Service Packs 1485 (Feb 2008), 1613 (Apr 2008), and 1738 (Jul 2008).

    It was corrected with the catalog.exe in the 1871 (Oct 2008) Service Pack. It does not occur in version 19.

    A workaround is to insert a "dummy" line as the first PF line in the xxx01 pc_tab_sear.eng, such as:

    PF ABC01 L Dummy line. Do NOT use. 000
