I am trying to take data from one field and place it in a new field, but
edit the contents along the way. Basically this is what I'm looking for:

Start with 

050= 14$aQH331$b.L5276 2010eb


Finish with

999= 00$aQH331.L5276 2010eb



I'm not really concerned with the first indicators (switching from 14 to
00), but I'm more interested in finding a way to remove the $b from the data
(so that the data in subfield $b would be pasted to the end of the data in
subfield $a. 

Thank you in advance for the help,

Cate Marshall
