I've never personally seen this or had to deal with it -- but you should be able to deal with it through the general Replace function using a clever regular expression. I doubt this works as is -- but something like this may work:
Find What: (=245 ...*)(\$b.*)(\$b.*)(\$?.*)
Replace with: $1$2$4
This would drop the second subfield b -- but you could use $3 and drop the $2 in the Replace syntax and drop the first subfield b.
