Subject: Re: [MARCEDIT-L] add period to end of 650 fields
Hi Matt,
An example is always welcome, it makes it easier to be precise in answering your question. But something like the following might do the trick:
find: =650 \\(.*)
replace: = 650 \\$1.
I am guessing about the "=650 \\" as a reliable prefix to the fields that you want to change. Take a close look at the fields in your file and modify the find and replace strings as needed. As with the articles in the archives, the "(.*)" refers to a "capture group" which will accept any number of any characters in the remainder of the field. In the replace string we refer back to this capture group with the "$1" syntax. Lastly, our replace string has a "." at the end.
Yours,

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] add period to end of 650 fields
I see information in archives to remove periods from ends of fields, but nothing
to tell me how to add them. I need to add full stop to end of subject fields in
about 200 records. I have not used regular expressions before, so if that is
involved, please be kind. Thanks for help
Matt
