I am trying to use sed to change a value in a pipe.
------------------- This is the two line script
CHANGE="1234"
cat my_file.txt | sed 's/CANCELID/$CHANGE/' > cancel.txt
-------------------
and the my_file.txt has:
<v1:notificationId>CANCELID</v1:notificationId>
it gets changed to $CHANGE instead of the actual value 1234 .
I tried putting a \ in front of the $ also and made no difference.
What am I not doing correctly.
Thanks,
jerry
