Erm, I'm not clear what you're trying to do Veeraraju.
Firstly you're opening your file for append, so a read on the file won't return
any data.
Secondly you're not using the result of the substitution. While this may well be
a cut-down example I hope you're not expecting the file itself to be modified?
Cheers,
Rob
