Almost Embarrassingly Lazy ...

This is an almost embarrassing example of my belief that if I can get a computer to do it for me, I shouldn't have to do it myself.

I'm writing a little Perl script to replace the library's Symphony code from a string of data with the two-letter equivalent that Technical Services uses, but I'm not even typing all of the program myself: I'm using my favorite Excel function, Concatenate, to construct the individual lines of code based on a pattern.
