How to Read a Text File Line by Line in C# in Console Application

6/14/2014 - By Pranav Singh 0

In this article I will show you how to read a text file line by line in c# in console application.  


Now for this application first we will create a new console application, add the below code in your console application.

C#.Net
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;

namespace DemoConsoleApplication
{
    class Program
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// How to Read a Text File Line by Line in C# in Console Application
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="args"></param>
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int totallinecounter = 0;
            string textfileline;

            /*Code to Read the file.*/
            StreamReader objstreamreaderfile = new StreamReader(@"D:\DemoTextFile.txt");
            while ((textfileline = objstreamreaderfile.ReadLine()) != null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(textfileline);
                totallinecounter++;
            }
            objstreamreaderfile.Close();
            System.Console.WriteLine("Total no of lines in text file is  {0}.", totallinecounter);
            System.Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

VB.Net
Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Text
Imports System.IO

Namespace DemoConsoleApplication
    Class Program
        ''' <summary>
        ''' How to Read a Text File Line by Line in C# in Console Application
        ''' </summary>
        ''' <param name="args"></param>
        Private Shared Sub Main(ByVal args As String())
            Dim totallinecounter As Integer = 0
            Dim textfileline As String

            'Code to Read the file.

            Dim objstreamreaderfile As New StreamReader("D:\DemoTextFile.txt")
            While (InlineAssignHelper(textfileline, objstreamreaderfile.ReadLine())) <> Nothing
                Console.WriteLine(textfileline)
                System.Math.Max(System.Threading.Interlocked.Increment(totallinecounter), totallinecounter - 1)
            End While
            objstreamreaderfile.Close()
            System.Console.WriteLine("Total no of lines in text file is  {0}.", totallinecounter)
            System.Console.ReadLine()
        End Sub
        Private Shared Function InlineAssignHelper(Of T)(ByRef target As T, ByVal value As T) As T
            target = value
            Return value
        End Function
    End Class
End Namespace

Now we will first create a new text file.


Now we will run the application.
