Hi
I have some files in some folders. In that files there are words RCLG5 for instance that i want to change to RCLG6.
Is there a tool to replace that words in all files in one folder without opening it?
Thanks
Rui
If you want to change something in a file in a folder, then you have to open the file, edit the data, write the file, and then close the file. At least something has to open the files - several scripting languages can do this for you.

Hi Dave,
Its what i normaly do (Find - Replace). My question is: do you Know a tool ?
Rui
Ultraedit can do that. I'm sure there are others also.

Thank you Jimg, i tried it one time ...but without success. It seems too complex, no ?

For jobs like this I write Autoit scripts :thumbu
Just click on "search/replace in files". I don't know what could be simpler.

«... I write Autoit scripts ». I dont know how to do that :thumbu

Jimg, it doesnt work.
Search -> Replace in files
Find what RCLLIB5
Replace with RCLLIB1
In files/Types .asm
Directory: E:\MASM32\RCLGES1\
The Result is:
0 items replaced in 0 files.
I have this: include \masm32\RCLLIB5\Fnt.GLB (this is one line inside Fnt.asm
and Fnt.asm is in E:\MASM32\RCLGES1)
and i want to get include \masm32\RCLLIB1\Fnt.GLB

the In files/Types needs to be *.asm
just .asm is not sufficient

Jimg,
may be i got the wrong UltraEdit ! It doesnt work, doesnt change anything ! with or without *.asm
i am sure the files are there the names are there but doesnt change

Sorry, I don't know what to tell you. I've used it many times without problems.
If you want to upload fnt.asm, I can run a test.
Otherwise, be sure you have the Regular Expressions box unchecked, Unicode search unchecked (unless it is in unicode), etc., and that you don't have any extra spaces or unwanted characters in the "Find What" box.
Jimg,
many thanks to you :U - it is working correctly now i have made a mistake, sorry
