I have a confuguration file that has 6 lines of text in it. It is not an INI file. I need to replace the 3rd line from "MYID , IDNAME" to "MYID , %COMPUTERNAME%". Not sure how to do this. Thanks in advance.

This is the file I need to edit:
[STARTUP SECTION]
COM3, ON, 19200, DTR
MYID , ID
Mode , AUTO, , , Delete
STATUS, C:\Program Files\Axiohm\DLStatus.txt
PATH, C:\Program Files\Axiohm
DATA_FILE, C:\Program Files\axiohm\Counts.txt
This is the script that isn't working...
If Exist ("C:\Program Files\Axiohm\cfgDL01.txt") = 0
Quit
EndIf
$file="C:\Program Files\Axiohm\cfgDL01.txt"
$file2="C:\Program Files\Axiohm\cfgDL01.new"
If Open(1,$file)
EndIf
If Open(2,$file2,5)
EndIf
$line=ReadLine(1)
While (@error = 0)
Select
Case
$line="MYID , ID"
If (WriteLine(2,"MYID , " + %COMPUTERNAME%) <> 0)
EndIf
Case
$line="$line"
If (WriteLine(2, $line <>0)
EndIf
EndSelect
$line=ReadLine(1)
Loop
Close(1)
Close(2)

you should use the [Code][/code] tags when posting code. to keep the layout and readability.
then looking at your code:
Case $line="$line"
If (WriteLine(2, $line <>0)
this is obviously what you have intended as for other cases. well, it isn't.
kixtart needs to process your "$line", that is insert the line inside text.
after that, it needs to compare that text with the initial $line. it may or may not be the same.
check from manual what to do in this type of case.
the writeline has an syntax error, missing quote.
a quick re-write of your script would lead me to:
$file="C:\Program Files\Axiohm\cfgDL01.txt"
$file2="C:\Program Files\Axiohm\cfgDL01.new"
if not Exist ($file)
"no file to edit, quitting..."
sleep 2
Quit
EndIf
if Exist ($file2) ;we want the new to be clean.
del $file2
EndIf
If Open(1,$file)
"can't open file for reading, quitting..."
sleep 2
Quit
EndIf
If Open(2,$file2,5)
"can't open file for writing, quitting..."
sleep 2
Quit
EndIf
$line=ReadLine(1)
While @error = 0
Select
Case $line="MYID , ID"
$rc=WriteLine(2,"MYID , " + @wksta + @crlf)
Case "others"
$rc=WriteLine(2,$line + @crlf)
EndSelect
$line=ReadLine(1)
Loop
$rc=Close(1)
$rc=Close(2) |

$file=" "
$arr_text = readfile($file)
for $line = 0 to ubound($arr_text)
if $arr_text[$line] = "whatever"
$arr_text[$line] = "something else"
endif
next
$=writefile($file,$arr_text)
BTW.. readfile() and writefile() are UDFs

$file is filename... returns an array of each line in $file
code:
Function ReadFile($file)
Dim $lf, $f
$lf=chr(10)
$f=freefilehandle
$=open($f,$file)
if @error exit @error endif
do $t=$t+$lf+readline($f) until @error
$=close($f)
$ReadFile=split(substr($t,2),$lf)
EndFunction
$file is filename
$array is array of text to be written to file. CRLF will be automatically appended to each line
code:
Function WriteFile($file,$array)
Dim $f, $line
If Not VarType($Array) & 8192 Exit(1) EndIf
$f=freefilehandle
$=open($f,$file,5)
if @error exit @error endif
for each $line in $array
$=writeline($f,$line+@crlf)
if @error exit @error endif
endif
$=close($f)
EndFunction
$array is array of text
$find is string of text to match
$inclusive is whether to return lines with the string or without the string
code:
Function FilterArray($array,$find, optional $inclusive)
Dim $lf, $t, $l, $sp
$lf=chr(10) $sp=chr(32)
If Not VarType($Array) & 8192 Exit(1) EndIf
for each $l in $array
if (instr($l,$find) and $inclusive and trim($l)> $sp)
or (not instr($l,$find) and not $inclusive and trim($l)> $sp)
$t=$t+$lf+$l
endif
next
$FilterArray=split(substr($t,2),$lf)
EndFunction
