    Hello Everybody, I have a file Abc.txt with the following contents **Testing
    ]]>
    **In the above contents, I have to replace only the "cdef" present in the starting of the file, with some numbers say "1234". I couldn't able to do it using the CFile class. I have done a alternative way, by reading the contents and replacing the word and then re-create the file with the same name. I don't want to recreate the file instead I have to replace the string. Please help in solving this issue. Thanks, Neelesh K J Jain.
