sorry to confusing you all
actually im really lacking experience in programming and i hardly know how to use it
right now im using vs2012 in windows8 , is that mean i was coding in winrt?

btw , i appreciate all your help and successfully applying answer to my code
this is the actual code

        var file = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.GetFileAsync(tb1.Text+".txt");
        var line = await FileIO.ReadLinesAsync(file);
        if (tb2.Text == line[2])
        {
            tb3.Text = (line[1]);
        }

Answer 1

var desiredText = File.ReadLines("C:\myfile.txt").ElementAt(1);

File.ReadLines() returns an IEnumerable<String> of the lines in a file. The index of the second line is 1. See this.
