Hi all,

One last question. :) I'm working on another normalization rule that we can't quite get right! Victoria found this indication rule<https://developers.exlibrisgroup.com/blog/alma-indication-rule-for-bad-diacritics/>, but we don't just want to find the diacritics, we also want to remove them.

We've tried:

rule "Contains <U+fffd> in 0XX or 1XX or 2xx or 3xx or 4xx or 5xx or 6XX or 7XX or 8xx fields"
when
     ((exists "0**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "1**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "2**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "3**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "4**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "5**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "6**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "7**.*.*<U+fffd>*") OR (exists "8**.*.*<U+fffd>*"))
then
replaceContents "<U+fffd>" with ""
end

And:

rule "Contains <U+fffd> in 0XX or 1XX or 2xx or 3xx or 4xx or 5xx or 6XX or 7XX or 8xx fields"
when
     (exists "<U+fffd>")
then
replaceContents "<U+fffd>" with ""
end

Does anything wrong stick out to anyone?

Thanks!
