Hi.. I'm new to visual basic, I'm now making a program to list files in remote directory, currently I'm using php to generate text file and my program to read the text file

I want to read file line by line from http://localhost/tes/view.txt

but it got stuck at this code
Code:
Dim objReader As New StreamReader("http://localhost/tes/view.txt")
It said URI format not supported.. How to make it support? Is there some way to read remote file text?

or is there some other way yo read files in directory?

Thanks..
