Dennis - I've not had a lot of experience with the formulas you share with us. Is this a formula applied via Access or one that is from the LTools area? If an Access item, could you steer me to a site that might explain the building and application of the formulas. I have the LTools but have not been able to apply some of them to my files.They look like a great feature to mass change items, so would sure appreciate some feedback.

The best way I have found is using the 'search' tab with the 'microscope' icon (use Detailed Search tab). Choose Individual; Notes, Burial; contains; the letter 'a' or 'e', with no ' '. This should find at least 99% of the examples. Then tag each, and once 'fixed' remove the tag.

and better yet is there a way to remove ALL of the
burial notes?

I don't know of a way to do it in Legacy. But you can
easily do it using
MS Access or another tool.

    UPDATE tblIR SET tblIR.BuriedNote = ""
