--- Comment #1 from Shanna Hollich <shanna.hollich at wilson.edu> ---
Adding a comment that I have also encountered this bug and it is frustrating.
My workflow is made much easier with use of the Advanced Editor. For advanced
catalogers, the Advanced Editor is quicker and easier - I write MARC records
the same way I write HTML markup, which is to say I type out all the MARC
fields, indicators, and subfields by hand because I use them so frequently that
I know them by heart and it is much quicker to type them then to move to the
mouse and select fields from a form.

Being able to duplicate records in the Advanced Editor would mean being able to
simply delete a line here or there and type in some new MARC fields and be able
to save in a matter of seconds. To be restricted to only using the basic editor
means clicking through each tab to find the group of MARC fields I want (which
makes little sense when editing a MARC record anyway since fields like 490 and
800 need to match and should therefore be visible on the same screen, but I
digress...) and then clicking again to manually edit or delete or duplicate
that particular tag. I'd rather just be able to type what I need.

Hopefully someone can make a fix for this soon. Thanks!
