Reservoir import file formats

[Betsy Law]

I'm copying this to the list because I don't know what has gone wrong
as I am new to importing records using MarcEdit.  Anyone know why this
reservoir import might not be working?

I tried out the sample files attached here and the .mrc file seems to
have imported OK (have not checked it line by line).  I couldn't
import the .mrk file. I was also able to save the Z39.50 result
records in .cgi format (the format that Library of Congress records
come in) and, again with the reservation that I haven't looked
closely, that seems to import just fine.

Betsy and Morium --

No files were attached here.  Also, Morium, please be specific what response you get when attempting an import.  Does it crash, hang or disappear?  What is the error message?

The .mrk - is the MARC Edit Editing file used only with MARC Edit - you won't need that with Koha.

I don't know about the LC Z39.50 record you used with MARC Edit.  

I use MARC Edit myself so I do have some familiarity with it.
