    Description:
    I want to retrieve records with an 856 tag with "$$uhttp://lib-proxy.abc". I ran p_ret_01 like this:

    setenv p_code "856"
    setenv p_sub_code_a "u"
    setenv p_text_from_a "http://lib-proxy.abc"
    setenv p_text_to_a "http://lib-proxy.abcz"

    but it retrieved only 101 records and I know there are many more.

    Resolution:
    This p_ret_01 is retrieving only 856's with blank indicators, while most 856's have non-blank indicators.

    You need to specify "856##" as the Tag, so you have:

    setenv p_code "856##"
    setenv p_sub_code_a "u"
    setenv p_text_from_a "http://lib-proxy.abc"
    setenv p_text_to_a "http://lib-proxy.abcz"
