    Description:
    Is there a way to toggle between the DC form editor and the XML editor when editing a DC descriptive record in Meditor?

    Resolution:
    Yes, it can be configured for each unit separately. For example, for the local unit loc01, you can edit the file: /exlibris/dtl/u3_1/loc01/md/md_conf.xml so that you can edit a dc record in the xml editor.

    In the md_conf.xml file, you need to change the following lines :
    From:
    <md>
    <name> descriptive </name>
    <type> dc </type>
    <data-format> xml </data-format>
    <editor-format> dc_form </editor-format>
    </md>
    To:
    <md>
    <name> descriptive </name>
    <type> dc </type>
    <data-format> xml </data-format>
    <editor-format> xml </editor-format>
    </md>

    Then restart the pc server: >start_pc
