Reading the contents in Text File
Hi,

I have written a VB Code that would read one line at a time from a text file.

If I have 10 lines in my text file, after getting the contents from 8th line, I want to again go back and read the 5th line.

How do I do it in VB? Can somebody help me plz?????

You can't read backwards from a file, you'll have to either store file contents in variables or read through the file from the start a 2nd time.

Yep, just shove it all in a variable, and delimit it by the linebreaks.

Then you can recheck your line myVariable(4) = line 5
