Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

void replace(ifstream&,ofstream&);

int main()

{char filename[30];

bool found=false;

cout<<"what is the name of the input file youare using? ";

cin>>filename;

ifstream input;

ofstream output;

input.open(filename);    

if(input.fail())

{ cout<<"file did notopen please check it\n";

system("pause");

return 1;

}

cout<<"what is the name of theoutput file you are using? ";

cin>>filename;

cin.ignore(100,'\n');

output.open(filename);

replace(input,output);

 

input.close();

output.close();

system("pause");

return 0;

}

void replace(ifstream& in,ofstream& out)    

{bool found=false;

string lookfor="#N#";

string data,name;

int n;

getline(in,data);

while(in)

{if(!found)

{n=data.find(lookfor,0);

if(n!=-1)

{found=true;

cout<<"Enter name: ";

getline(cin,name);

data.replace(n,3,name);

}    

}

out<<data<<endlu;

getline(in,data);

}

}
