This is what the delete field utility is for.  Set the field to 856, the options to use regular expressions and use this expression -- I have tested it but it should work as it.

Otherwise, there really isn't a good way to do what you are asking -- partly because the mnemonic file format structure is the way that it is.  It treats the blank lines as new records.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] deleting blank line between two tags in same record

Hello,

I have a batch of 13,000+ records which have a blank line between tags 830 & 856.   Is there a way to remove these blank lines globally WITHOUT also removing the legitimate blank line between each record?  

I've searched the archived posts and did not see a suggested solution for similar problems which can be applied to my situation.  

I've tried the Notepad++ Text FX plug-in to delete blank lines, but that removed ALL blank lines, including the one which separates each record.

The extra blank lines were created when a tag 856 was deleted from the batch of records using regular expressions.  I didn't think I could use the Add/Delete Field tool in MarcEditor to delete those particular 856 fields because each 856 slated for removal contained a different 8 digit string at the end of the  tag.   

Do I need to add something to the regular expression I used to identify the 856 tags in order to also remove the blank line left behind by the deleted 856?  But again, I searched various regex help lists & blogs for help on how to do this, but came up with nothing that worked.  

The regular expression used to locate all the unwanted 856 looked like this (probably something a lot simpler is available, but I'm really new at this!):

(=856  ..)(.*{2\$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click to view:$uhttp://site.ebrary.com/lib/twuca/Doc?id=})(\d{8})


To recap, I'd like to remove the blank line between the last 830 and the first 856 fields, but keep the blank line between each tag 999 and each =LDR.  A sample from the batch of records I'm working with is copied below.  

If anyone have some ideas, I would be so grateful to hear them.  Thank you!
