I am new to the bat scripting, so I'm planning to change a word in a text file called "sampleFile.txt"
Can anyone help me? Thankx :)

Use the batch file below like this example, to replace apple with orange in file.txt and write the changes into newfile.txt
changefile.bat "apple" "orange" "file.txt" >"newfile.txt" Check DOS Batch - Find and Replace:
@echo off REM -- Prepare the Command Processor -- SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS SETLOCAL DISABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION ::BatchSubstitude - parses a File line by line and replaces a substring" ::syntax: BatchSubstitude.bat OldStr NewStr File :: OldStr [in] - string to be replaced :: NewStr [in] - string to replace with :: File [in] - file to be parsed :$changed 20100115 :$source http://www.dostips.com if "%~1"=="" findstr "^::" "%~f0"&GOTO:EOF for /f "tokens=1,* delims=]" %%A in ('"type %3|find /n /v """') do ( set "line=%%B" if defined line ( call set "line=echo.%%line:%~1=%~2%%" for /f "delims=" %%X in ('"echo."%%line%%""') do %%~X ) ELSE echo. )
