This is a bit confusing without a clearer picture of what files 1
& 2 contain, as well as the desired output given those files. If
I understand what you want, file1.txt looks something like
...
<Folder><![CDATA[C:\work\sources\foo\bar\baz\MODULEX\lib]]></Folder>
...
<Folder><![CDATA[C:\work\sources\foo\bar\baz\MODULEX\lib]]></Folder>
...
and you have file2.txt which looks something like
...
spatula
kumquat
...
and you'd like the output to look something like
...
<Folder><![CDATA[C:\work\sources\foo\bar\baz\spatula\lib]]></Folder>
...
<Folder><![CDATA[C:\work\sources\foo\bar\baz\kumquat\lib]]></Folder>
...
such that the first instance of MODULEX gets replaced with the
first item in file2.txt, the second instance of MODULEX gets
replaced with the second item from file2.txt, etc until you run
out of matches in either file1.txt or file2.txt
If you could reply with either "yes, that understanding is
correct" or "oh, here's a better, clearer example of before &
after" it would help in formulating a solution.
