Hello, this is my first post and I am a new member to the VB world, and really new to the .net family. Okay I have a project that requires me to access a *.txt file that contains a list of names and randomly pick three of the names and display them out. I have a limited program right now that pulls in only 1 name from the list cant get it to read past the space, and havent started on the random part yet. Any input will help, and thank you for your time.
