Maybe something like this will do ...
' warning - aircode
dim sPathSpecIn, sPathSpecOut, aTmp
sPathSpecIn = "c:\somewhere\somefile.txt"
sPathSpecOut = "c:\somewhere\someotherfile.txt"
with createobject("scripting.filesystemobject")
aTmp = split(.opentextfile(sPathSpecIn, 1).readall, vbNewline)
aTmp(0) = "put directory\" & aTmp(0)
.opentextfile(sPathSpecOut, 2, true).write join(aTmp, vbNewline _
& "put directory\")
end with
BTW, this CAN be done with the command processor using the /F switch
with the FOR command, since it can read and write files line by line.
Type FOR/? at a command prompt for help or look for 'MS DOS commands'
in the Windows help (F1 key on the desktop).
