using sed to replace a pattern in list of files

Hi era,

Thanks for the help but it still doesn't work..

Files below consists of "bc01"..

/home/applmgr/amit/xyz.log
/home/applmgr/amit/abc.log

If i use sed this way, it works...

$ sed -i 's/bc/xy/g' xyz.log abc.log

output:
=====

A) cat xyz.log
xy01
6000

B) cat abc.log
xy01
6000
6001


My requirement is :

sed -in '1,$s/bc01/xy01/g' file_list.log --should work for multiple files in file_list.log

where ..

$cat file_list.log
/home/applmgr/amit/xyz.log
/home/applmgr/amit/abc.log

anyone who could suggest the correct way..

Regards,
