Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but can't you just go: <cffile action="read" file="myfile.txt" variable="oldcontent"> <cfset newcontent = replace(oldcontent, "DE*MY TITLE / HERE", "DE*My Title / Here", "ALL"))> <cffile action="write" file="myfile.txt" output="#newcontent#"> -- Bud Schneehagen - Tropical Web Creations _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ ColdFusion Solutions / eCommerce Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.twcreations.com/ 954.721.3452 ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
