Description:
We want to suppress certain fields from the Name tags display in the Web OPAC. (We know how to suppress fields from the Full Record view, but also need to suppress them in the Name tags area.)

Resolution:
Let's say that the field you want to suppress from OPAC Name tags display is the "CAT" field.

1. Include this line in your ./xxx01/tab/tab_expand:

WEB-FULL fix_doc_do_file_08 delete_cat_field.fix

(As noted in the tab_expand header, the WEB-FULL is for the full display/Web OPAC FULL -- all formats except the 001.)

2. Add a "delete_cat_field.fix" file to your ./xxx01/tab/import directory -- which looks like this:

1 CAT## DELETE-FIELD

[Note: The same technique can be used to suppress the display of any other tag in the Name Tags display. You can have multiple lines in the delete-field file, one for each tag you want to delete from the display.]

See KB 8192-2122 for suppression of a field from the MARC Tags display.
