Batch file String question

[keytotime]

How do you find a string in a file and then after that string insert a certain text on the next line.

[un4given1]

can you give an example of where you are pulling data from, and what kind of output you desire?

You can do this with a VBScript easily.

With a FileSystemObject you can add lines in ASCII or Unicode text file.

1) Open the file you want to edit

2) Create a temp file

3) Read you source file line by line

4) Add those lines in your temp file

5) When your text is found - InStr(FileLine,Text) - add the extra lines you want

6) When source file is all red then close it and delete it

7) Rename temp file as source file and that's it

I can provide you sample code but if you're not familiar with VBScript, I don't think it will help.

I'm trying to add two lines automatically to dosnet.inf and txtsetup.sif. I'm trying to add it under [Files] and [source disk files]
