Unless someone knows something I don't, the only way I can think of is:
rename file to backup
Open 'infile' backup
Open new outfile (original)
Go through each line reading from infile writing to outfile until you find
the word on the line.
Then do a string replace for that line and write the new line.
Continue this way thoughout the file until the end.
