Non-Working feature and workaround?
Has anyone on the list edited the list of journals that provides the
"authority list" for the "Journal title" Field of IBIDEM? The help manual
claims that this list is auto-updated--and should thus include all the
journal titles that I have previously entered, but this function does not
work. The list of journals I get seems like a stock list that came with
the program but is not dynamic. The authority lists for Author, Keywords,
etc. do include the records from previous entries. The company should note
this problem for a future fix. It would be great also to have instructions
on how to manually alter these files. A useful new feature would be to
allow users to add the Authority List option to any other field. For
example, I have added a field to all my databases that lists the status of
my work with that item; the options I usually enter are: YES, NO, RETURN,
and SCAN. It would be great to have these options available for selection
from a drop down menu.
