that I created. I am trying to add the attribute information into the
box labeled “Entity and Attribute Overview Description” in the FGDC metadata
editor. I type everything in and click Save and it displays in the
metadata. If I close out or refresh the metadata, the attribute data I
added in the box is gone. I’ve tried to export the metadata immediately,
but the added text does not export. I can save changes made in other
sections of the metadata editor, such as in the
abstract.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
