 If I'm looking at a field report in Marcedit, it will tell me whether
there are more more 856 fields than the one per record that  we
expect. Is there a utility/function/search that I can do to find which
are the records that have more than one instance of a particular
field?  In this case, the field can legitimately repeat so using the
validator won't catch this.

(The specific problem is that some of the vendor supplied records for
ebooks have multiple 856 fields and in some cases, the "extra" URLs
are for services that our library has no access to.

Also, if I see in the field report that there are too few of
particular field that I want in every record, is there a search I can
do to find which records have no instances of a particular MARC field?

Advance thanks,
