If you're modifying XML then I'd strongly suggest using xmltask (I'm 
biased here!) or equivalent.

Why ? A simple text search/replace doesn't respect the character 
encoding conventions within your XML, and doesn't respect entity 
encoding. e.g. you want to insert the text "x < y". If you do that 
directly using a simple text search/replace then you'll end up with 
invalid XML.
