Hello,

I have been having some issues with a certain manufacturers labels.  (not sure 
if I am allowed to name them here).  They have been coming loose on the ends, 
and I am worried that they may get stuck in my drive, or come off in the drive.

I have purchased a new set of labels from another manufacturer that have not 
been having this issue.  

Now the problem.  When I change the labels, my volume label is the old label 
from the old barcode, and the new label is the new barcode.  I have been 
waiting for the expire so that I do not have problems there.  I am wondering if 
there is a way to get the labels to match again.  My reason is I have written 
some scripts that use one or the other labels to identify the tapes.  

I have considered deleting the tapes from the library, but then I will not know 
how many times my tapes have been used.  I think that it would still come up 
with the old volume label though.

Any help is appreciated.

Keith
