Jump to PostYou don't need fseek to do this, just read the file sequentially using (for example) fgets and look for the substring using strstr. Very simple.

yes, i was doing that. i searched for the string using strstr function. but when i tried to print from the position just after the last character of the searched string, by using a pointer, sumthing went wrong with the logic.
Is there any other way to do this ?

>sumthing went wrong with the logic.
Then you should fix your logic, not start over from scratch. Clearly the problem isn't with the solution, it's with how you implemented the solution.
