Reading a Text File in Visual Basic 6

[ThEiMp]

hello guys, it's me again.

I am looking to have a text file to be read by doing a shell action, after the file has been made in text chars. I need it to look something like this:

        With Main.CustomDialog1
            .Action = 1
            Main.Text1.Text = .Data
            .Filter = "zip"
        End With

Can someone please help me with my coding problem of mine, thanks in advance also, even....

PS: Please note that .Action = 1, is the loud open dialog box and then .Action = 2, is the quite file opening form class in my ActiveX control
