Not directly -- but could easily be accomplished via a regular expression.
You'd just need to decide what the criteria would be (since obviously not
every field should have punctuation.  It is was me -- I might do it in field
groupings to have more control over the process -- but essentially, it would
be a regular expression that looks like this:
Find: (=[1-9][0-9][0-9].*[^\W])$
Replace: $1.

Check use regular expressions.

This will add a period to any field from 100-999 that doesn't have a
punctuation mark at the end of the field.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] Globally adding ending punctuation for every MARC
field

Hi,
Does anyone know if MarcEdit has a function to add ending punctuation to
every single MARC field in a record?
Thanks,
Lucas
