-----Original Message----- From: Sperr, Edwin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2004 8:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Using as_string() in Marc::batch I'm using as_string() in Marc::Batch to get 650 fields and mash all the subfields together so I can push them into a database. Works great, but what I'd really like to do is have fields such as: "Health Services Canada." appear as "Health Services -- Canada." Basically, I need some dashes to appear between |a, |x and |z. Is there something I can do directly with as_string() or do I need to use as_formatted() and try to roll my own search-and-replace routine? Thanks!
