Read file data and send to different file

junk.txt has a single numerical value in it, let's say 50421.44.

over.namelist has lots of expressions in it, but somewhere random it says value = x.x

I need to go into junk.txt, pull out the number, and amend over.namelist to say value = 50421.44.

SmilieSmilie

I'm trying to use sed, but can't make it work. Something similar to:

Code:
sed -I 's/'x.x'/gawk '{print $1}' junk.txt/g' over.namelist

Any help?
