Solve : Delete specific line in file using batch...?

Answer»

Hi everyone,

I'm using batch programs to work on files and I'd like to know how to DELETE a specific line, of a text file for instance, using a batch program ?

I can print a specific line using the find command but don't know how to delete it next ?

Please help...

ThanX by advance

-=McFly=-I'm pretty SURE you can't delete individual lines from a file. Generally DOS commands deal with devices and files not records.

Even FIND doesn't PULL records from a file. It just pushes selected records that meet the SEARCH criteria to a file or device. The original file remains unchanged.

Use a script. Very effective.

Hope this helps.
