Same principle as the last four, but you would just use a 3 (saying start at the beginning and then count for three digits)

I also wanted to ask you, earlier, you had given me the code to get the last four digits of the patron's library card number (%SUBSTR(-4)%%PATRON_BARCODE%%SUBSTR_END%) and it worked perfectly. Now, would you know the coding for getting the patron's first three letters of their last name? I also wanted to add that vertically along with the patron's library card barcode. Much appreciated for all of your help Lynn, Dana From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Lynn Floyd Sent: May-29-14 4:57 PM To: 'Evergreen Discussion Group' Subject: Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Rotating text on hold slip 90 degrees Where you have "<H1><font size="7" face="Arial"> %SUBSTR(-4)%%PATRON_BARCODE%%SUBSTR_END%</font></H1>" replace it with the following <p style='position: absolute; top: 50px; -moz-transform: rotate(90deg)'> <H1><font size="7" face="Arial"> %SUBSTR(-4)%%PATRON_BARCODE%%SUBSTR_END%</font></H1> </p> That should work. If not, let me know and I'll see what else may work.

I am trying to put the last four digits of the patrons library card number vertically on the hold slip to look like this: 1 2 3 4 Here is my current coding: This item needs to be routed to <h3>HOLDS SHELF</h3> Barcode: %item_barcode%<br/> Title: %item_title%<br/> Patron: %PATRON_LASTNAME% %PATRON_FIRSTNAME%<br/><br/> Notify by phone: <b> %notify_by_phone%</b> <br/> Notify by email: <b> %notify_by_email%</b> <br/> Notify by text: <b> %notify_by_text%</b> <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/><br/><br/><br/><br/> <H1><font size="7" face="Arial"> %SUBSTR(-4)%%PATRON_BARCODE%%SUBSTR_END%</font></H1> <br/> <br/> <br/> Much appreciated, Dana Schwarz Technical Services Coordinator Lincoln Public Library 4080 John Charles Boulevard Vineland, ON L0R 2C0 905-562-5711 905-562-3454 (fax) [email protected]
