[Archon-L] Record Groups Identification Question

[Kyle Rimkus]

Hi Thomas,

I'm also curious about why that works in your install.  We have a
non-public install of Archon 2.1, and have noticed the same thing that
the others on list have commented on.  Namely, the first field in the
Classification Manager is "Number", and gives an error message when I
try to add letters.  We would also like to be able to add letters in
that field at the University of Miami.

Best,

Kyle
