General Scripting - Help with inserting data into a fixed width text file

Hi there

Hoping someone can help. I need to insert 2 leading zeros, only in some instances, into a fixed width text file.

Example of text file

94909 999310158177125 EA 24
94909 9977043001639 EA 36

What I need it to look like is

94909 999310158177125 EA 24
94909 990077043001639 EA 36


This is what I have tried but moves all spaces to the right of where the 00 has been inserted

Const ForReading = 1
Const ForWriting = 2

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objfile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\scripts\pline.txt", ForReading )

strText = objfile.ReadAll
objfile.Close
strNewText = Replace(strText, "9977","990077 " )

Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("C:\scripts\test.txt", ForWriting)
objFile.WriteLine StrNewText
objFile.Close

Any help is really appreciated.

Thanks
TKS

Well, you have a space in your Replace statement. I think what you wanted was this:
vb Code:
Original - vb Code
  1. strNewText = Replace(strText, " 9977"," 990077")
