Dear group,

I am having difficulty getting the alignment of Hebrew and mixed 
Hebrew/romanized fields correct in authority records in OCLC.  If I uncheck the 
Align Right under View in the menu then the 670 aligns left, but so does the 
Hebrew 400.  If I leave the Align Right checked then the Hebrew 400 is aligned 
right, but so is the 670.  If I leave the Align Right under View selected but 
then  unselect Right-to-Left Reading Order from the  right mouse button menu 
for the 670 field, then it aligns on the left correctly, but as soon as I save 
the record the 670 flips again to right alignment.

Has anyone had better success in getting the correct alignment?

Thank you,
