I hate to bother Terry, so asking collective wisdom.

I use MarcEdit primarily for record conversion and some record editing.  Does MarcEdit also provide any validation functionality (so for example, can you profile for a check of specific fields/subfields/indicators or certain prescribed punctuation)?  Obviously, it knows whether a not a record is a MARC record, but I'm wondering about more specific checks.  Reviewed the documentation and couldn't find any reference to this.

TIA.  --Steve
