write some text to *.TXT files in Folder

[SoftVoile 0]

hello,

what i want to do is search for *.txt files in Folder/SubFolders and write the following text at the start of file.

and if the file already have the text inside it then search for next file.

the text i want to add into files.

"Hello " & @UserName & ","
"Some information about the project."
"File information is below."
"'The name of this file is" & %filename% & " size: " & %filesize% & "-KB, -Located on " & %parent_folder%
"-This file was last Accessed in " & %DateLastAccessed% "-and created in " & %DateCreated%
"-Have a nice day ;)"
"|--****--Please add other Project info Below--****--|"

i have read about FileWrite(), FileWriteLine(), FindFileFirstFile(), etc but can't figure it out.

any example code in 'Example Scripts'? or any information how to do it?

Try this:

#include <File.au3>
$TEXT = InputBox("EXAMPLE","Write here what you want to write in files")
$PATH = FileSelectFolder("SELECT","")
$FILES = _FileListToArray($PATH,"*.TXT",1)
For $INDEX = 1 To $FILES[0]
    _FileWriteToLine($PATH & "\" & $FILES[$INDEX],1,$TEXT,0)
Next

Thanks Andriek for the very fast reply but on second run this code adds the same line again to the file.

and if the file already have the text inside it then search for next file.

Add FileRead() to read.

Add FileRead() to read.

Yes but if he use fileread for have some sentences in file, how he would do ?

Then he would add StringInStr() to read.

I was searching for string functions, you found it lol

how StringInStr() can read a *.txt file and match string?

StringInStr: Checks if a string contains a given substring.

also i want to search files in child Dirs/folders and it's working only for parent folder.

like in @DesktopDir & "\*\*\*\etc"

Search the forums for recursion and also you'll need to read the file contents to a variable then use the variable in StringInStr() to check.

could always use Run() + @COMSPEC + findstr command.

Why do I get the feeling that SoftVoile isn't learning to code? He's obviously not spending anytime trying to do this on his own. What he wants done is easily done when one wants to complete it.

SoftVoile, I would recommend that you start providing some of your own code as you seem to be trying to get everyone to do this for you, and that won't benefit you at all. Please post some sensible code as this isn't a hard task, even for someone new to coding.

Thanks,
