[Solved] sed to replace words

Hello All,


I have file named filelist.txt

a.bteq.ctl
b.bteq.ctl
c.bteq.ctl

I want to replace the word bteq to tpt in this file.

I used this sed command
Code:
 cat filelist.txt | sed 's/bteq/tpt/g'  > filelist.txt

But this command deletes all records from the filelist.txt

Can anybody please point out what is the problem with above command
