Hi Friends,my name is unix.com. I am awesome. Hope you know this, Honey
Hi Folks,my name is unix.com. I am awesome. Hope you know this, Sweety
Hi Well-Wishers,my name is unix.com. I am awesome. Hope you know this, Darling

Makarand,

Thanks for the reply.

There are multiple hello1s and hello2s in the input file at on different lines. Like a paragraph filled with hello1 and hello2 and other text.

I just gave you a simple example.

Your code is not replacing all the instances of hello1 and hello2 and in addition it is printing the hello1 and hello2 into the output file. Any pointers, please?

Thanks a lot for your time.

end

END(7)							  PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation						    END(7)

NAME

       END - commit the current transaction

SYNOPSIS

       END [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]

DESCRIPTION

       END commits the current transaction. All changes made by the transaction become visible to others and are guaranteed to be durable if a
       crash occurs. This command is a PostgreSQL extension that is equivalent to COMMIT(7).

PARAMETERS

       WORK, TRANSACTION
	   Optional key words. They have no effect.

NOTES

       Use ROLLBACK(7) to abort a transaction.

       Issuing END when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will provoke a warning message.

EXAMPLES

       To commit the current transaction and make all changes permanent:

	   END;

COMPATIBILITY

       END is a PostgreSQL extension that provides functionality equivalent to COMMIT(7), which is specified in the SQL standard.

SEE ALSO

       BEGIN(7), COMMIT(7), ROLLBACK(7)

PostgreSQL 9.2.7						    2014-02-17								    END(7)
