Hi,
This is a sample script incase you need to run on single or multiple files in a directory.

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
for file in *.txt ; do  
  sed  's/SIZE=[0-9][0-9]*/SIZE=00/g' $file > /tmp/${file}.new;   
  mv ${file} ${file}.old #Taking a backup before overwriting
  mv /tmp/${file}.new $file;
done
Thanks
Nagarajan Ganesan.
