reading from file[Resolved]

[System_Error]

How can you read a certain line from a file without wasting your time processing each line like this:

try {
        BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("infilename"));
        String str;
        while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {
            process(str);
        }
        in.close();
    } catch (IOException e) {}

Like, if I had a list of 5000 words, and I wanted to skip to the 1234th word, how would I do that? I know I could use a counting variable in the above example, but I wouldn't want to keep reading everyline like that untill I got to the right one.
