Hi Sir!
I have a similar scenario. I have an xml file which I compiled in unix and i send it out as an attachment which opens with excel. Now there are certain keywords (kw01)in the xml file which I wanted to replace with the contents of txt files having multiple lines.
So i tried your code above with this command:
sed '/kw01/r fatal_alerts.txt' template.xml | sed '/kw01/d' > test.xml
now when I sent out the output file 'test.xml' and open it via excel, the cell where 'kw01' is located is not replaced with the contents of 'fatal_alerts.txt'.
Is there a possible way to do this sir? Need your help badly.

asadmin-reconfig
asadmin-reconfig(1AS) User Commands asadmin-reconfig(1AS) NAME
asadmin-reconfig, reconfig - applies the changes you have made for a server instance SYNOPSIS
reconfig --user admin_user [--password admin_password] [--host localhost] [--port 4848] [--secure|-s] [--passwordfile filename] [--discard- manualchanges=false] [--keepmanualchanges=false] instance_name This command is deprecated. It allows you to apply changes you have made for a server instance. Use the reconfig command after you've used the set command to change server properties. Any changes you make to the configuration files of the server do not take affect until you apply the changes by running the reconfig command. When --discardmanualchanges is set to true, manual changes made to the server.xml file are discarded. When --keepmanualchanges is set to true, manual changes made to the server.xml file take affect. However if both options are false (both options are not specified), an error message is displayed if manual changes and/or changes have been applied using the Adminis- trator Interface. Use this command with discretion since there is no undo, and the changes applied are made directly to your con- fig/backup/server.xmlfile. OPTIONS
--user administrative user associated for the instance. --password administrative password corresponding to the administrative user. --host host name of the machine hosting the administrative instance. --port administrative port number associated with the administrative host. --passwordfile file containing passwords appropriate for the command (e.g., administrative instance). --secure if true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the administrative instance. --discardmanualchanges defaults to false. When set to true, discards the changes made manually to the server.xml file. --keepmanualchanges defaults to false. When set to true, allows the manual changes made to the server.xml file to take affect. OPERANDS
