Adding details to a file

ForeverYoung (2)
Hi all, I need some help with c++ .txt files, I just need a general description of how should I go about doing what I need to do...

Sample txt file:
11/11/2008
<record1>
<record2>
<record3>

After processing it, I need to add details at the back of the records like so:
Sample txt file:
11/11/2008
<record1><extra details>
<record2><extra details>
<record3><extra details>

How do I go about doing this?
