It's very simple you can do this in one single line
First, include the System.IO;

if you have permission to read from files

string Contents = new StreamReader(path).ReadToEnd();

Thanks for the replies.

I got the solution this way...

C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1.  
  2. url = "http:\\website\dir\sample.txt";
  3.  
  4.             Uri uri = new Uri(url);
  5.  
  6.             //Create the request object
  7.  
  8.             WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create(uri);
  9.             WebResponse resp = req.GetResponse();
  10.             Stream stream = resp.GetResponseStream();
  11.             StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(stream);
  12.  
  13.             string s = sr.ReadToEnd();
