gsparks2,
Thanks so much for your prompt reply.
I did all the steps you mentioned as well as...
There are two "Identifier Type" in search and replace. Until the bottom one was completed there was a red "you must complete "Identifier Type". I used mobi-isbn which populated four of the books on the left hand side. The right hand side showed these blank. I hit apply. It showed it was "processing 14 books" and then defaulted to the open search and replace. However, when I close the search and replace and go to the four books with mobi-isbn identifiers, the mobi-isbn identifiers are still there. I tried isbn same results.
I'm telling you everything that happened in hopes you will see what I am doing wrong. This was why I contacted this forum as on my own I had tried the same steps. (I did use *.* for search where you use .* but this did not make any difference at all)
If you have any ideas why this search and replace is going through the motions but not actually doing anything, I would love the help.
