Pls help.

hi,
here is the solution to your problem,
BatchSubstitute.bat "core.http.userAgent=BoardPulse" "core.http.userAgent=BlogPulse" a.txt
BatchSubstitute.bat "text_to_be_replaced" "new_text" name_of_the_file

the file BatchSubstitute.bat is as follows:

FILE name :BatchSubstitute.bat

@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

set "line=%%B"
if defined line (

for /f "delims=" %%X in ('"echo."%%line%%""') do %%~X >>j.txt
) ELSE echo.
)
