Search for: .*
all other fields left blank

Problem is that the Test Result shows "You must specify a destination when source is a composite field" and I get the same in an error box if I try to run the search and replace still. Is there a new way to remove ISBNs in bulk?
Search field -> identifiers, not the custom column. The custom column just displays information. It cannot be edited there.
