MARC Global forms error

In the 233 release of MARC Global, it is possible to generate erroneous forms in the program by using the following sequence of events:

• Start MARC Global and press 'Skip'
• Select one of the task types and run the job
• On the results page, select 'Run MARC Global on the results'
• On the Start page, press 'Skip' again
• Select another task and press 'Next'

At this point, the data entry form that is displayed will often be invalid (ie. it will not contain the expected options).

Workaround

This bug can be avoided by pressing 'Next' twice on the start-up screen, instead of using the 'Skip' shortcut (to bypass the 'Patterns' form).

1. Download the following file: mrt233-mglobal-patch.exe (1.3 MB)
