Get Specific Text File Line

[jmcilhinney]

You can't just get a specific line. To get line N you must then you have to read every line before that and, if you don't need them, just discard them.

Private Function GetLineFromFile(filePath As String, lineNumber As Integer) As String
    Using reader As New IO.StreamReader(filePath)
        Dim line As String = Nothing
 
        For i = 1 To lineNumber
            line = reader.ReadLine()
 
            If line = Nothing Then
                'No more lines
                Exit For
            End If
        Next
 
        Return line
    End Using
End Function
