is it posible to input data into the middle of a file?
If not is there a way to edit certain key words in the file?

The only way to Edit Data within a Flat Sequential File is to Read all the Data in, modify it, then Write all the data out.

If you use a Random Access File, you can utilize the Get# and Put# Methods to Manipulate Data at specific points in the File.
