You've got the Modify Text File - Single File action, with the Configure Search and Replace Strings, where you can search for the respective line and replace it with the line of your choice!...

My problem is not getting resolve by this feature. and the reason is that my line is dynamic and only some text is static. So I have to replace whole line based on that static text.
for eg. search text1 ("Myport=****") replace with text2 ("NewPort=9000")
TIA!!!

Then you may want to use regexp (regular expressions) or custom code.

what does regexp (regular expressions) or custom code mean ?
So I need to do it in another way or InstallAnywhere has other function to do with it?

For regexp take a look here: http://community.flexerasoftware.com/showthread.php?t=190440&highlight=regexp
For Custom Code you may want to check the manual: IA has an API which allows you to add functionality that might not natively exist, using Java.

Thanks for the response. Here is another question: how to package a static folder which contains dynamic files? Becuse new file may added in folder sometimes, but I just saw the static links for folder and file in installanywhere. Is there any way for installanywhere to locate the new file and package automatically without adding new file manually

The solution to that would be SpeedFolders.
