Help with the ReadLine method please

[ukleaf]

Hi guys, could someone point me in the right direction please?

I have 2 list boxes, the first one (lstFullFileContents) contains all lines within a specific file.

I would then like to extract a certain line, in this case always line 5 from that list box to another (lstListBox1)...

Getting lstFullFileContents to show all the lines isn't hard,

Dim line As String
line = sr.ReadLine()
lstFileFullContents(line)

I thought there would be a copy command I could use maybe... but the only one I could find copies the whole list box contents...

Any ideas please?

Many thanks.

Doesn't have your ListBox a Column property ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hi there PHV,

not sure if I know what you mean, the list box has only the one column?

I need to extract line 5 from one list box to another.

Many thanks.
