Alan,
It looks like wherever you have ticked a child category, you also chose
to tick the parent category. There are cases where you do not
necessarily want to do this. For instance you could tick box 5.3 but not
box 5. In this case, the metadata would read:
<Category assigned="0">5 level<Category Assigned="1">5.3
Level</Category></Category>
That is one of the small complications facing those who would like to
write a conversion script. Like you say, I wish I could do it.
Conceptually, it is not too difficult. Practically, that's another matter...
Best regards,
Francis

I am not mistaken, that would need to be converted to
lr.heirarchicalsubject format:<br><br>1 Level, 2 Level|2.2 Level, 3
Level|3.2 Level|3.3 Level, 4 Level|4.2 Level|4.3 Level|4.4 Level, 5
Level|5.2 Level|5.3 Level|5.4 Level|5.5 Level, 6 Level|6.2 Level|6.3
Level|6.4 Level|6.5 Level|6.6 Level <br><div><div><div><div
