+====== RDA Relationships for Appendix J ======
+<html><font color="red">
+NB. These instruction are valid only in version 244. Version 245 includes full support for Appendix J customization</font></html>
+Because the current version of the program does not have a matrix editor for the RDA Appendix J terms, the only way to customize these terms is to add them to your codelistLocal.txt file.
+Follow the same steps as above.
+For example
+  rda-relationships	Companion volume to	Relates a resource to ...
+where 'rda-relationships' is the name of the list, 'companion volume to' is the code or term, and 'Relates a resource to ...' is (the beginning of) the definition of the term.
+Once this is done, and the program restarted, the contents of the codelistLocal file will be merged with that of the main codelist, and available when the program runs.
+So, following the above example, pressing <F7> after subfield $i in a 710 would now display the following dropdown list of relationship terms:
+{{:help:custom_app_j_code.png|}}
+And similarly, if this term were to appear in an existing record, and validation of the associated Tag/Subfield is enabled, no error message will appear.
+And finally, the entry above will also display in your MARC Help results (F1)
+{{:help:marc_help_codelist.png|}}
