So, you essentially, you have a text file on the internet, and you want to read it and post the text in order into a combobox?

If my combobox code did not work use the streamreader but use my downlaodfile code, downlaod the file, read it with the streamreader and add the items to the textbox and if you dont want the file to be saved to the computer delete it when you're finished. You have all code in this thread already.

You use a webclient or computer.network to download the file, read the file that is now stored locally and then you can delete the file.
