find replace
hi i have 2 txt files in 1 i have stored numbers

numbers.txt
ex.
10
20
30

others i have stored
word.txt

10,hello
20,welcme
30,text ......

i need to auto replace numbers with words ..
plise help.

so the word.txt's contets need to change?
like
hello,10
welcme,20
text,30

or the two files' contents

number.txt's contents:
10,hello
20,welcme
30,text ......

word.txt's contents:
10
20
30

what do you say?

You should read every number from the first file and compare each of it with the first one's of the second file.
When you find a mach, you do a replace.
I am not sure where do you have your problem: in understanding what to do or in writing a code.

end.

I have got an idea.... :)

program solution;

uses crt;

const numtxt    = 'C:\number.txt';  {assign f1}
      wortxt    = 'C:\words.txt';   {assign f2}
      temptxt   = 'C:\temp.txt';    {assign f3}


var f1,f2,f3:text;
    numstr,wordstr,tempstr:string;{one line max 255 char}
    i:byte;       {max 255 line!}
    c:set of char;

begin
     clrscr;
     c:=['0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9'];
     numstr:='';
     tempstr:='';

     assign(f1,numtxt);
     assign(f2,wortxt);
     assign(f3,temptxt);

     rewrite(f3);  {create a new,or delete its contents...}
     append(f1); {open for append}
     reset(f2);  {open for read}

     {while true ,that we're not in the end of the file}
     while (eof(f2) = false) do begin

           readln(f2,wordstr);  {read one line}

           {check the readed characters one by one}
           for i:=1 To length(wordstr) do begin
               if not (wordstr[i] in c) then break {!}
               else numstr:=numstr + wordstr[i];
           end;{of for}

           writeln(f1,numstr);  {append the results to the number.txt}
           numstr:='';          {set to empty}


           {ok,now let'see the temp file..}
           for i:=1 to length(wordstr) do begin
               case (wordstr[i]) of
                    '0'..'9':writeln;{do nothing}
                    ','     :writeln;{here too}
               else tempstr:=tempstr + wordstr[i];  {!}
               end;{of case}
           end;{of for}
           writeln(f3,tempstr);
           tempstr:='';
     end; {of while}

     clrscr;

     {and last copy the temp.txt's contents to the words.txt}
     reset(f3);
     rewrite(f2);
     while not eof(f3) do begin
           readln(f3,tempstr);
           writeln(f2,tempstr);
     end;

     {write out the results to the screen...}
     {number.txt}
     writeln('number.txt''s contents');
     reset(f1);
     tempstr:='';
     while not eof(f1) do begin
           readln(f1,tempstr);
           writeln(tempstr);
     end;

     {words.txt}
     writeln('words.txt''s contents');
     reset(f2);
     tempstr:='';
     while not eof(f2) do begin
           readln(f2,tempstr);
           writeln(tempstr);
     end;

     {close the files...}
     close(f1);
     close(f2);
     close(f3);

     {just press the enter button to quit}
     readln;
end.
