Manipulating File Data

-----------------------------------

the compiler i'm using is VC++ 6

i am making a program that reads information from a file, what i'm wondering is if there is any way that i can overwrite data in that file.

for example if there is a 1 in a txt file could i erase that and put a 2?

thanks :D

you'd have to scan the document, find the numbers and have a bunch of if statements that say to replace it. There is a tutorial around here somewhere on doing that.......
