Michel, this is the latest version of changes to make to B.Index,
incorporating all changes from last Wednesday's meeting and from our
phone conversation of 5/2/95.  Hopefully this tallies with what you
have down as needing to be done.

I have moved all of our designated B.Index test records into the
workfile, so everything's ready for you to go ahead and make the
changes.  As soon as you let us know you have done so, we'll re-file
the records back into the main database and run through the
test-wringer.

Thanks------Sam

Recommended changes to B.Index           Rev. 950503
	from Ad-Cat

Types of changes:

I.  Changes to existing fields already in B.Index
II. Additions -- New fields to add to B.Index
III. Deletions -- Fields to delete from B.Index

I.  Changes to existing fields

1.  Indexing series numbering in note words index.
	Index /v of the following fields as Files = WORDS and
	dcode = N:	400
			410
			411
			440
			800
			810
			811
			830
			840

2.  246 /i should not index.
	Add "i" to PASS column.

3.  246 BIND : indicator 1 value 3 should be indexed in addition to
			value 1.
	should be:  @, M1 OR 3  [don't know exactly how this
	should look]

4. 400	/t should index separately as title.
		400 should be consistent with 800.
		Add second layer for /t that is consistent with 800
		  (that is, a second layer for 400 /t with dcode = P)
		Change dcode to 1AMPX (add X to indicate 2nd
		  layer).
	
5. 410	/t should index separately as title.
		410 should be consistent with 810.
		Add second layer for /t that is consistent with 810
	             (that is, a second layer for 410 /t with dcode =
			P)
		Change dcode to 2AMPX (add X to indicate 2nd
		  layer).
	

6. 411	/t should index separately as title.
		411 should be consistent with 811.
		Add second layer for /t that is consistent with 811
	              (that is, a second layer for 411 /t with dcode =
			P)
		Change dcode to 3AMPX (add X to indicate 2nd
		  layer).
	
7.   600	/t should NOT be separately indexed as a title.
		Delete 2nd layer of /n,p,s,t from 600
		Change 600 dcode to 1MS (X no longer
		neccesary if 600 only indexed once, correct?)
		In other words, treatment of 600 should be
		consistent with treatment of 610 and 611.

8. 711	dcode value should be 3AMX, not just 3AM, to indicate
		2nd layer of index for /t (as done for 700 and 710).
	
9. 711	/t T index should include other title-specific subfields in
		2nd layer index (like /n, /p, etc.) as done for 700 /t
		and 710 /t.
	--add these subfields (in Valid column) to 2nd layer:
		f,k,l,n,p,s,t

10. 730	/h should not index.
		Delete /h from Valid column.
