How to replace a word with a series of words in a file

Hi,

I have a Template file 'TL.body' which says as follows:

"There are no <FILENAME> files on the server. "

The missing file names are identified and stored in a variable.
For Eg: MISSFILE="abc.txt def.txt xyz.txt"

I want the values of MISSFILE variable to be replaced against <FILENAME> and store the result in another Temp file.

I tried using the following command:
sed 's/<FILENAME>/'$MISSFILE'/g' TL.body > Temp.txt

However, it gives following error:
sed: Function s/<FILENAME>/abc.txt cannot be parsed.

Could somebody help me out to overcome this problem.

TIA

Regards,
Ramesh

NAME
Template::DBI - DBI plugin for the Template Toolkit SYNOPSIS
$ perldoc Template::Plugin::DBI DESCRIPTION
The Template-DBI distribution contains the DBI plugin for the Template Toolkit. At some point in the future it is likely to contain other DBI-related plugins and extension modules for the Template Toolkit. The DBI plugin was distributed as part of the Template Toolkit until version 2.15 released in May 2006. At this time it was extracted into this separate Template-DBI distribution. See the documentation for Template::Plugin::DBI for further details on using the DBI plugin. AUTHORS
The DBI plugin was originally written by Simon A Matthews, and distributed as a separate module. It was integrated into the Template Toolkit distribution for version 2.00 and included contributions from Andy Wardley, Craig Barratt, Dave Hodgkinson and Rafael Kitover. Andy Wardley extracted it back into a separate distribution in May 2006. After that, in 2010 Jens Rehsack maintains this distribution. COPYRIGHT
