sed 's/145.D25.D558/215.22.45.DW/' (the file name)
Let's escape the period characters to stop "sed" interpreting them and give it a global "g" parameter.
This is a big guess because you have not mentioned what Operating System and Shell you have or provided sample input and expected output. Phrases like "but it did not work.. " need qualification with a visual description of what you expected and what actually happened accompanied by any error messages presented exactly as they appear.
Vague statements like "a very big file" are worthless. Exactly to the byte how big is this file?

Is there a way to use the sed command to
1) search a specified pattern
2) in the line where that pattern is found, replace from character N to character N+4 with a new 4-character string.

Hello,
I am hoping someone can provide some guidance on using context based search and replace to search for a pattern and then do a search and replace in the line that follows it. For example, I have a file that looks like this:

strcadd
strccpy(3GEN) String Pattern-Matching Library Functions strccpy(3GEN)NAME
strccpy, streadd, strcadd, strecpy - copy strings, compressing or expanding escape codes
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lgen [ library ... ]
#include <libgen.h>
char *strccpy(char *output, const char *input);
char *strcadd(char *output, const char *input);
char *strecpy(char *output, const char *input, const char *exceptions);
char *streadd(char *output, const char *input, const char *exceptions);
DESCRIPTION
strccpy() copies the input string, up to a null byte, to the output string, compressing the C-language escape sequences (for example,
,
01) to the equivalent character. A null byte is appended to the output. The output argument must point to a space big enough to accommo-
date the result. If it is as big as the space pointed to by input it is guaranteed to be big enough. strccpy() returns the output argument.
strcadd() is identical to strccpy(), except that it returns the pointer to the null byte that terminates the output.
strecpy() copies the input string, up to a null byte, to the output string, expanding non-graphic characters to their equivalent C-language
escape sequences (for example,
, 01). The output argument must point to a space big enough to accommodate the result; four times the
space pointed to by input is guaranteed to be big enough (each character could become and 3 digits). Characters in the exceptions string
are not expanded. The exceptions argument may be zero, meaning all non-graphic characters are expanded. strecpy() returns the
output argument.
streadd() is identical to strecpy(), except that it returns the pointer to the null byte that terminates the output.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Example of expanding and compressing escape codes.
/* expand all but newline and tab */
strecpy( output, input, "
" );
/* concatenate and compress several strings */
cp = strcadd( output, input1 );
cp = strcadd( cp, input2 );
cp = strcadd( cp, input3 );
