>just make the data loaded in Koha match the printed barcodes.

I would just love to be able to do that.

But Its not possible to exactly match barcodes in Koha with printed
barcodes because :

1) No report from the old software has barcodes in it. ( the barcode
printing utility they have provided is a standalone application)
2) The accession number stored in the MS SQL db has no leading zeros.
3) The printed barcode length is arbitary so I cant predict the number
of leading zeros.

The old software has no notion of MARC..
