Hello,

Can anyone tell me the easiest way to go about deleting commas that occur at the end the $a of various fields?  In the 1XX and 7XX, the comma is at the end of the field, that is, there is no $d.  In the 6XX fields, the comma comes before subject subdivisions.

For example  

=100  1\$aDorn, Robert C.,

=600  10$aDorn, Robert C.,$vTrials, litigation, etc.

I am working with a file of 9,400 records, and I would estimate that there are several hundreds of such occurrences. 

Thanks!

Margaret
