Assuming you are looking to remove a period, ? or asterisk, you need to
escape these. Otherwise, it will match any character -- which is what you
have happening here. But I guess I'm not quite sure what this is supposed
to be doing.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] Usinf Regular expression in Edit Subfield to clean up
ISBN
Hi!
I'm having problems with a regular expression which I think worked the last
time I used it (about 2 years ago)
I'm trying to remove invalid characters from 020$a using the Edit subfield
tool:
Field: 020
Subfield: a
Field data: \(.*?\)
Replace with: <blank>
Tick Use regular expression
Click Remove text
This is now unfortunately removing the a subfield code so that: =020
\\$a0385609841 is changed to: =020 \\$0385609841.
What am I doing wrong?
Cheers,
Chris
