replacing characters in the pdf link
Hello,
I managed to get my database into Zotero, but for some reason, many of my links look like this :
c:%5CUsers%5Cobrendel%5CMyPDFs%5C2011%5CMedlyn.2011.pdf
when they should look like this :
C:\Users\obrendel\MyPDFs\2011\Medlyn.2011.pdf
Is there any way in which I could in the whole database replace the "%5C" with "\" ?
Opening for example the SQLite database directly ? Any simple programme for a beginner ?
I'm talking about 5000 references here :-)
Any ideas welcome
Cheers
Oliver
