"4) Export Tab Delimited - include the ability to choose your own
delimiters"

Wouldn't you know it, just when I figured out how to (kluge-ly) use Excel and
Visual Basic scripts to convert MARCXML into tab delimited data, you 
come along
and make it a regular MarcEdit feature.  If this works it should make 
my life a
lot easier, thanks!
