How to Insert a Header Row in a Text File using a Batch program.

[jpilch]

New to using this forum and batch files, so please bear with me.
It doesn't seem like this would be hard, but I've search everywhere I can think of and can't find the answer.

Using Windows 7

Need to open text file, and add a static header. 

Original Text File Example:
XHD051500101103
XHE   PO#1005
XDT2496581 001
XDT2670961 001
XOE  27   33

Need it to be:
Header
XHD051500101103
XHE   PO#1005
XDT2496581 001
XDT2670961 001
XOE  27   33

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

With a little lateral thinking, try this

Code: [Select]

>{dummy}.txt echo Header
>>{dummy}.txt type "Original Text File"
del "Original Text File"
ren {dummy}.txt "Original Text File"
simply put, create a new file with the header in
append the content of your main file
delete the main file
rename the temp file to the original main file name
