Hi Doug,

I've tried to add subfield h with your instruction.  I can insert GMD
after subfield a, n, p, b and before c successfully now. But there
should be a space between $h[electronic resource] and /$c or :$b if
present. And there should be no space between the last letter of $a and
$h.  How could I tidy up the spaces?

Thanks,

Iris

Hi!

This version drops the GMD in before 245 $c and, if present, before 245
$b in MarcEdit 5.0 through 5.2.3719.  
In the special Subfield Insert mode, syntax order counts, and is not
always the same as ISBD or AACR2 MARC subfield order:


Field:     		245
Subfield: 		[a,p,n,^c,b]
Field Data: 	=:/.
Replace with:	$h[electronic resource]

For anyone running MarcEdit 4.6, you can use the same setup, except:

Subfield:		[a,p,n,^bc]

Hi,

  I just had tried to use following step for inserting GMD in 245 field,
I can insert GMD after subfield a, n, p, and before c successfully now, 
but I failed to insert GMD before subfield b, it alwayse was after 
subfield b. 
Please help me to recheck my step:

Field     245
Subfield [a,n,p,^b,^c]
Field Data =:/.

Failed marc format in 245:

and

>When inserting certain subfield data, like the GMD, AACR2 has a number
of 
rules regarding the placement of the subfield data. In the current
version 
of MarcEdit, users could append a new subfield to the end of an existing

one -- but for data like the GMD, which is inserted after the $a, $n$p, 
and before the $c, this method wouldn't work. So I've added a new 
insertion syntax (see below):

bracketed, 
so that the MarcEditor can apply the insertion rules to the data. So
using 
the GMD as an example, the subfield data would be the following:
[a,p,^c]. 
Breaking this down.

data before subfield P. If subfield P is not present, insert data before

subfield a.
>    *   ^c: Tell the MarcEditor to insert subfield data before subfield

c. Please note -- this argument is only valid as a secondary argument --

i.e., the MarcEditor will not accept the following argument: [^c].
>3) Field Data: When in this mode, Field data is used to note
punctuation 
that should not be included when calculating field data.
>4) Replace With: This is the subfield (or data) to insert.
