I want to read a text file with only 2 Lines and show them in text boxes here is my code (from MSDN) but cannot figure out how to continue:
VB
Dim fileReader As System.IO.StreamReader
fileReader = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader("C:\Program Files\login.conf")
        Dim str1, str2 As String

and have the first Line of the txt file in variable str1 and second in str2 like this :
VB

Use File.ReadAllLines Method

VB
Public Shared Function ReadAllLines (
    path As String
) As String()



Example:

Imports System
Imports System.IO

Public Class Test
    Public Shared Sub Main()
        Dim path As String = "c:\temp\MyTest.txt"
        Dim sw As StreamWriter

        ' This text is added only once to the file.
        If File.Exists(path) = False Then

            ' Create a file to write to.
            Dim createText() As String = {"Hello", "And", "Welcome"}
            File.WriteAllLines(path, createText)
        End If

        ' This text is always added, making the file longer over time
        ' if it is not deleted.
        Dim appendText As String = "This is extra text" + Environment.NewLine
        File.AppendAllText(path, appendText)

        ' Open the file to read from.
        Dim readText() As String = File.ReadAllLines(path)
        Dim s As String
        For Each s In readText
            Console.WriteLine(s)
        Next
    End Sub
End Class


hope it would resolve your issue
