i have 30 xml files and i want to edit them in bulk to replace 4 lines in each of them. the lines have following format: <administrator> <setting> some text </setting> <action> some text </action> </administrator> i want to replace the whole paragraph with following: <user> <options> none </options> <command> some text </command> </user> so basically i want to replace existing text with new text but 3rd line requires the text within tags unchanged. can anyone pls help? any batch script or software?
