newbie problem with array

This is VBNET2005

I feel like I'm missing something really obvious here.

I keep getting the error "Value of type 'string' cannot be converted
to '1 dimensional array of string'"


Public Class Form1

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e
As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click




Dim inputstream As New
System.IO.StreamReader("c:\testfile.txt")

Dim line As String

line = inputstream.ReadLine()

Dim testarray() As String = Split(line)

TextBox1.Lines = testarray(1)

inputstream.Close()

End Sub
End Class


Any help appreciated.

This will result in an error as the Lines property of the TextBox is an
array of strings and not an integer.
 
Chris,

I was once searching for that lines property because it is in a mater of way
the equivalent to the multiline option. I could not find it anymore. This
showes that it was not deleted, however completely removed from my memory.

Thanks for pointing me on this.
