Batch file read and edit a line

Example of current batch file:
Line1 Line2 Line3 Line4 MY PROG NAME=%PROGNAME% Line6 Line7 SET THIS IS IT= LINE9 MY PROG NAME= LINE11
I need my batch file to search the existing batch file and edit the "MY PROG NAME=" line to "MY PROG NAME=C:\Program Files..."
The catch is their are two of the same entries. IE: MY PROG NAME=%PROGNAME% and MY PROG NAME=
The second entry will always be on the same line in the batch file if that helps.
**This is not the actual file but a lot shorter for example purposes**
If any additional info is required please let me know.
