Powershell - string replacement using regex

Hi nancyvargas,

You can use one of the following methods

1. First, define the variables for the old value ("xxx") and the new value:
   $OldValue = "xxx"
   $NewValue = "your new value here"
   
   Next, use the Replace() method to find and replace all occurrences of the old value with the new value in a string:
   $string = "some string with Version=xxx and other text"
   $string = $string.Replace($OldValue, $NewValue)
   
   
2. You can also use the -replace operator to do the same thing:
   $string = "some string with Version=xxx and other text"
   $string = $string -replace $OldValue, $NewValue
   
   
3. If you want to replace all occurrences of "Version=xxx" in a file, you can use the Get-Content cmdlet to read the file into a string, then use the Replace() method or -replace operator as shown above to replace the old value with the new value:
   $fileContent = Get-Content "C:\path\to\your\file.txt"
   $fileContent = $fileContent.Replace($OldValue, $NewValue)
   or
   $fileContent = Get-Content "C:\path\to\your\file.txt"
   $fileContent = $fileContent -replace $OldValue, $NewValue
   
   Finally, use the Set-Content cmdlet to write the modified string back to the file:
   Set-Content "C:\path\to\your\file.txt" -Value $fileContent

 I hope this helps.

Regards,

Ruud
