Remove fixed string from multivalue field

Hi,
I have a field alert which contains the following events:
“Failed Logon”
“Dropped Database”

However, sometimes the source application adds the string “Multiple - “ before it. Hence when running stats I end up with results like:
“Failed Logon” 9
Multiple - Failed Logon” 1

“Dropped Database” 2
Multiple - Dropped Database” 3

I am looking for way to remove the string “Multiple - ” from the event field. The results should look like
“Failed Logon” 10
“Dropped Database” 5

Appreciate your help!
