I haven't seen if this was answered. My first response is a little hacky -- but I'd just copy the field. This duplicates the data into another field. Then use the Replace function -- specifically a regular expression -- to filter away the $b and change the indicators if you like. Something like:
Find: (=999)( .{2})(\$a.*)(\$b)(.*)
Replace: $1 00$3$5
Pretty sure that would do it.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] Editing subfield data
I am trying to take data from one field and place it in a new field, but edit the contents along the way. Basically this is what I'm looking for:
Start with
050= 14$aQH331$b.L5276 2010eb
Finish with
999= 00$aQH331.L5276 2010eb
I'm not really concerned with the first indicators (switching from 14 to 00), but I'm more interested in finding a way to remove the $b from the data (so that the data in subfield $b would be pasted to the end of the data in subfield $a.
Thank you in advance for the help,
Cate Marshall
