Do you mean that you want to alter the physical contents of 'database.inc'?
This would require you parsing the existing file yourself, writing a new
version of the file, altering the relevant line of code, removing the
original file and renaming your new file to the original filename.

This isn't a good approach, are you sure there isn't a different way for you
acheive your aims?

I think you didn't get what I meant,

I need a script such that I can change the content of database.inc from an
external script (form or whatever)
