Hello Donald Butterworth, We are using Evergreen version 2.6.1 do not find any problems with patron registration or editing. I hope your problem with Evergreen 2.6.1 is associated with permissions. A staff who log into the client requires the permission to add patron and edit patron. Otherwise it will show the same results. You may please log in using the admin account and check whether the result is same. After wards, the administrator can grant permission to other staff for adding and editing patron accounts.
Hope it may helps -- Jayaraj J R Library Information Assistant IISER Thiruvananthapuram http://www.iisertvm.ac.in
