Need help in replacing string

[Queener]

I'm pretty sure that I have this file except it doesn't have an extension. This code returns an error:

 

$Dummies = @ScriptDir & "\Dummies"
$sFind = "109.99.99.99"
$sReplace = "No Longer Use"
    if FileExists($Dummies) Then
        _ReplaceStringInFile($Dummies,$sFind ,$sReplace)
    Else
        MsgBox(0, "Error", "Make sure Dummies file exist before you proceed to compile this project.")
        Return
    EndIf

 

If it has an extension then it's ok, but if it doesn't have an extension then it returns an error msgbox that I created. Any help is appreciated.

 

EDIT: I figured... I didn't show the extension. So it was Dummies.txt all along.

works just fine.  Are you sure it is there, and it does not have an extension?

 

and to clean up the above, which again works fine.

#include<file.au3>

$Dummies = @ScriptDir & "\Dummies"
$sFind = "109.99.99.99"
$sReplace = "No Longer Use"
    If FileExists($Dummies) Then
        _ReplaceStringInFile($Dummies,$sFind ,$sReplace)
    Else
        MsgBox(0, "Error", "Make sure Dummies file exist before you proceed to compile this project.")
    EndIf

yeah it worked great... I have a new question; it's not an issue this time...

Is it possible to find the string and add additional strings below it? Not replacing it...

[iamtheky]

_ReplaceStringInFile($Dummies,$sFind ,$sFind & @CRLF & $sReplace)

exactly what I needed...

Thank you so much for the previous info. It was pretty useful.
