Hi,

I am trying to create a new 092 field with the first 3 letters of the title using the Build New Field function of MarcEdit. Is there a regular expression to capture this?

So far, I have the pattern: =092  \\$aFAMILY DVD {245$a}

This pulls the whole title. How do I limit to the first 3 letters of the 245 field? Or would you reccomend another approach to accomplishing this?

Thank you,

Jawahir Javaid
