Perl command to replace word in file...

Hi,

I want to search for a specific word in file and replace whole line with new text.

e.g.
1) I have file with below lines
APP=ABCD 12/12/2012
DB=DDB 01/01/2013

I need perl command which will check for APP=$VAL and replace whole line with APP=$NEWVAL $NEWDT

Simlarly need a command which will help for below.
"ABCD 12/12/2012"
"ABCDE 12/01/2013"
I have to search ABCD and replace only that line.

Thanks in advance.
