[...] the sessions I attended at the IUG 2010 conference were different than those that Dan reported on here; my report will focus on the sessions he didn’t already [...]

Re: autoIT: I haven’t used this, but another good, free, 3rd party app to automate tasks is AutoHotKey. This does have a recorder bundled with it that makes writing macros easier, although the programming language for this can also get complex fairly quickly. I use it all the time though, now, and don’t know what I’d do without it!

I went to IUG, also, but I’ve been taking some time off since my return. I’ll post about the sessions I attended (which focused on the Electronic Resources Management and other Collection Management aspects) later this week.
Thanks for the post, Dan!

Thanks for the great post, Dan. Here is a good online resource for working with regular expressions in case anyone is interested. Regular Expressions are an incredibly powerful search & search/replace syntax, but unfortunately are much easier to write than they are to read (so much meaning in so few characters).

Not that I know of, no. Sorry!

Thanks for the summary, Dan. Any word on improvements to the WebOPAC or changes to how XRECORDs are served up? We’ve been wanting to provide library catalog integration with our other search pages, but that’s not very easy to do in our current version of Millenium.
