Purpose:GET_FROM_BRACKETS is the primary argument for an XML Import validation that can be applied to any incoming element that has the required data encompassed in brackets. The brackets and anything outside them will be stripped off.
For instance, the q subfield of person fields in MARCXML are used to give a fuller form of the name e.g:
<subfield code="a">Meyer, R. J.</subfield>
<subfield code="q">(Robert John),</subfield>
You could use the GET_FROM_BRACKETS validation on the subfield code="q" to extract "Robert John" for import - i.e. any brackets and extra characters are stripped off.
Argument Structure: Enter GET_FROM_BRACKETS as the validation. There are no further arguments.
