Hi Again,

I see that your examples are all specific to the Microfilm collection. So you might be looking for a solution that would just affect those and leave other 949 fields unchanged.  So just make the leading prefix of the find and replace fields as specific as you need:

find      =949  \\$jMicrofilm G703(.*)\.
replace =949  \\$jMicrofilm G703$1

in this case, other 949 fields, other 949 fields with subfield j, other 949 - subfield j - microfilm fields will be unchanged -- just the G703s will be effected.

Yours,

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] Need regular expression to remove ending period

Hello,

Can someone help with a regular expression?  I have to remove the ending period from over 9,000 field 949s (we created the 949 field with data from the 830 to map to our holding records) and there are several variations of the text, here are some examples.
=949  \\$jMicrofilm G703 reel 906, no. 7541.1.
=949  \\$jMicrofilm G703 6235.1.
=949  \\$jMicrofilm G703 reel 291, no. 1959.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank-you, Lisa S.
