Combo Box problem, Adding items at runtime

So when the form loads, the combo box will be populated with the items. My idea was to read each line of the file, adding each item until it reached the end. At the moment I am trying to read from the file using BinaryReader, and then adding each item as its read, but code just isnt working CODE try { fs.Readline(server) Combobox1.Items.Add(server) } I know the above code is wrong( its an example, as my own code is just as shoddy ), but hopefully somone will understand what I am getting at. Thanks for any help.

It is specified as Read<data type>, where data type is the value you are reading from the file. Ie.. ReadByte, ReadChar, ReadDouble..etc. And it is written in the following format: CODE server = fs.ReadString BinaryReader
