markj Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Does any one have a simple script that i can play with that will search and replace text within a file? i.e. a gui opens up - select the file location, text to search for and text to replace with. The best i will ever be is a beginner!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Doominik Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 (edited) you can simply write it yourself... read sth. in the help about FileRead() and FileWrite() but if you have few time i can make you an example... EDIT: a little help would be this... just programm a gui for it and the needed controls: $text = "text" $file = FileRead("file.txt") $string = StringInStr($file, $text) If $string = 0 Then MsgBox(0, "String", "The String wasn't found") Else MsgBox(0, "String", "The String was found at Position: " & $string) EndIf Edited March 14, 2006 by Lord_Doominik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators SmOke_N Posted March 15, 2006 Moderators Share Posted March 15, 2006 i am a pleb There's a new one! Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
