Hello,
I was just wondering how I would refer to a certain line in a text file. It is by using an index of some sort? here is my try:

using (StreamReader worldlist = new StreamReader("wordlist.txt"))
                            {
                                string line;
                                line = worldlist.ReadLine(count);

                                listBox1.Items.Add(line);

                            }

Unfortunately the error is "No overload for method 'ReadLine' takes '1'."
Please help?
