    Consider in a Document if a String " Hello" is Encoded and stored as "XYZAB"

    I want to search the text on document for a word "Hello" and Replace the word with "HelloWorld"

    The Program will encrypt the word "Hello" and Search the file then return the encrypted code as "XYZAB" Found

    Now i have to replace the word "Hello" with "HelloWorld" in encrypted form so that the Letter "XYZABEFGHI" is replace in the place of Hello

    where "World" is encoded as "EFGHI"

    Now the Problem is If there is more number of occurrence of the word "Helloworld" exist in the file... How can i Replace only one particular occurrence What

    can be done to select the particular occurrence.

    Are you assuming how the encryption algorithm works? Will the String "hello" always be encrypted to "xyzab"?
    In a file, The second occurrence could be "asdfre" and the third "ertyu".
