Disclib Query
by parinitas＠hexaware.com 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

Dear All, I am using Disclib to list the contents of various CDs available with the library. Eventually this will be added to the catalogue of contents. However the data is huge with too may file extensions from .0 to .xmo and .zip Could anyone help me out with this? Which are the files I need to keep which show the contents details? I have already tried using fileextension.Org, but the files in the CDs are too many and too varied, and it would take eons to do this work manually - find out what the file extension means and then decide whether to keep it in the list or not!! Has anyone worked with Disclib? Could you tell me how this problem was sorted? Has anyone faced a similar situation? How did you resolve it? Please do let me know....
