Searching/Editing Textfile

Hi

I am writing a piece of code using the FileSystemObject... it copies a plain text file... however, I need to search for a string in that text file and replace it (in the copied version) with another string and I have absolutely no idea how to do this... any ideas? I can copy the file, just not search & edit it

Thanks,

Adam

Here is a solution, read the file in to a string variable, then do a replace on the string and then write the string to the new file.

VB Code:

'open your file, etc
strFile = f.ReadAll
strFile = Replace(strFile, "whatever", "new stuff")
'write strFile back to the new file

Will that replace just the first match, or all of them?

Either way, thanks

Adam

All of them.
