Question
Dear sir,
Hello !

I have a DOC file named "Letter1.DOC"; I also have an exe file named "Repl.Exe". I want to develope this repl.exe so that it is able of replacing some special words in "Letter1.DOC" like "My", with another word.

Let me know how I can replace words in a DOC file. Notice that I want my program to do so, that is I do not want to do that using Word2000.exe manually.

Thank you very much.

Answer
You will have to learn file management in C.
1. Open the file.
2. Read the contents.
3. Search for the word.
4. Replace with a new word.
5. Write back the contents into the file.

Hope this helps....
If you have any specific problems please let me know. If you have already written the code and are facing problem, then do post the code, so that I can debug it.
