We created a tool that will do that work for you, all you need is the list of filenames and the metadata in a csv file, such as can be created by any spreadsheet program (Excel or OpenOffice, for example). It'll then create the batch import structure for you. This might be one way to help with your problem. http://tools.dspace.cam.ac.uk/metadatamapper/ Best, -- Tom De Mulder <[email protected]> - Cambridge University Computing Service +44 1223 3 31843 - New Museums Site, Pembroke Street, Cambridge CB2 3QH -> 10/08/2011 : The Moon is Waxing Gibbous (75% of Full) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.
