I made a big mistake along the way in trying to work with Voyager's call number setup in Oracle, and dragged Ross along in an attempt to get past Oracle's constant quibbles with rogue characters in call number ranges. The idea was to expose the library catalogue as a series of folders using said call number ranges. This part works well enough when the characters are dealt with, but breaks down a bit for certain formats. For example, the University of Windsor lumps most of its microfiche holdings in one call number with an accession number, and Georgia Tech does something similar with maps. This can mean individual webdav folders with many thousands of entries, and some less than elegant workarounds.
So you are replacing SQL calls with WebDAV? Can you explain this a bit further? Andrew
