Hi there,
My question is 'simple'.....During login i need to change (edit) a file in de local user profile. We already use a kix script to add mappings, printers etc.
De file we want to change is in c:\%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment and is called deployment.properties
For specific user groups we want to add some parameters in this file.
The line in this file we want to change is: deployment.javaws.jre.0.args=
We want to add: '-Xms512m -Xmx512m' to this line.
How do we do that in the most simple way?
Thanks for your respons in advance.....!

If the file follows INI file format rules, then ReadProfileString and WriteProfileString can do the job. Use Read to get the current value and determine if it should be changed, use Write to update it.
If it's a standard text file, then the FileIO UDF might be useful.
$array=FileIO($filename, 'R') reads the file into an array. You can then enumerate the array elements looking for that line, replacing the data when you find it. Then, use FileIO again to write the data back to the file. $Filename='\%userprofile%\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties'
$Search='what to look for...'
$aFile = FileIO($Filename, 'R')
For $L = 0 to UBound($aFile)
If InStr($aFile[$L], $Search) ; found it - replace the data
; choose one of these
$aFile[$L] = Split($aFile[$L], '=')[0] + '=' + 'new value'
; or - to add to the existing data
$aFile[$L] = $aFile[$L] + 'added value...'
$L = 99999 ; stop the search
Next
Next
$ = FileIO($Filename, 'W', $aFile) ; put the data back in the file
@SERROR ?

And be careful about that entry name. There may be many entries for the args parameter, on for each version of java installed.
Here is my file for example:
#deployment.properties

deployment.user.cachedir=D\:\\Java\\Cache
deployment.javaws.viewer.bounds=0,0,1142,603
deployment.browser.path=C\:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe
#Java Deployment jre's
