Importing Text Files in DDEDIT

I would like to know if there is a way to match or import text from a file without doing the whole "double click, highlight, right click, import text, select folder, select text file" . Kind of how you Matchprop command when you select what you want to match. Maybe have it match from ToolPalettes? Or maybe an IMPORTTEXT lisp that you just have to type in the name of the file you want to bring in.

Example ... we have a 1632PNC screw that reads:

 

#14 X 4" HWH TEK III,

@ EACH SUPPORT

[1632PNC]

So lets say we want to change it to be a 3" and 1616PNC I would tell it to bring in the imported text from a folder where I have text files and pick the one that reads:

#14 X 3" HWH TEK III,

@ EACH SUPPORT

[1616PNC]

Thanks for your help in advance :)
