Hello,
I'm looking for a way to change the 020 subfield code 'a' to 'z' for any 
ISBNs qualified as (alk. paper) and am wondering if I can use a regular 
expression or some type of wild card in the find/replace string to do so.

The 020s in the records look like this:

=020  \\$a1573567701 (e-Book)
=020  \\$a9781573567701 (e-Book)
=020  \\$a0275993868 (alk. paper)
=020  \\$a9780275993863 (alk. paper)

I want to find only the (alk. paper) ones and change the $a to $z. Seems 
like there should be a way?

Thanks,
Amy Hart
