Connexion Client Version 2.10 Available for Download

OCLC Connexion client version 2.10 is available for download from the Software downloads area of the OCLC Product Services Web site. Please be aware that you will be required to upgrade to version 2.10 by April 1. Beginning in early February, an upgrade warning message will begin appearing when you start version 1.7x or 2.00 of the client.

If you have been using version 1.7x, upgrading to 2.10 will bring you the enhancements from version 2.00 in addition to those in version 2.10, without having to download version 2.0 first. For more details about 2.10, please go to the OCLC Connexion recent enhancements Web page. For client version 1.7x users interested in what has been available in version 2.0, please see the OCLC Connexion past enhancements Web page.

Enhancements in version 2.10 include:

  • Use new macro commands GetListCellData and GetListCellDataUnicode to retrieve data from lists.
  • Set an option to be warned before you export when unlinked non-Latin fields are present in a record.
  • Select one of multiple headings in a bibliographic field to lock a linked authority record.
  • Control genre headings in fields tagged 655 second indicator zero.
  • Display language of cataloging from field 040 subfield b in WorldCat search results lists.
  • See the code S for SCIPIO records in the Library type column in WorldCat search results lists.
  • See the SCIPIO date of sale in hyphenated format (1899-08-19) in WorldCat search results lists.
  • Export and import in Dublin Core Qualified, Dublin Core Simple, OCLC Dublin Core Qualified and OCLC Dublin Core Simple.
  • Include non-Latin data in 4xx, 7xx and selected 6xx fields in authority records when Library of Congress makes this available (no earlier than April 2008).

NOTE: This message is for users of the Windows-based Connexion client only; it does not impact users of the Web-based Connexion browser interface.
