Problem Symptoms:
Records display wrongly in z39.50 server using the Yaz client. Subfield codes and indicators are misplaced, many fields are empty:

321 $ $ aSemestriel, $
362 $ $
500 $ $ aTitre de l'?cran-titre (visionn? le 18 mars 2004). $
506 $ $
538 $ $
650 $ 6 $ a?ducation $
650 $ 6 $
659 $ $

The normal display is:

655 6 $a P?riodiques

Cause:
Bad data: records had "00" in LDR positions 10-11. These positions define the indicators and subfields offset.
The correct values for LDR/10-11 is "22".

Resolution:
LDR positions 10 and 11 were invalid in the affected records. LDR positions 10 and 11 must be set to "22".
