If I had to guess, the file you are reading is not regular (ANSI) text. Smells like binary or Unicode...
Open it in Notepad - can you read it? If so, click File / Save As. Note the data format at the bottom of the Save As dialog box - is it Ansi? If not, it won't be a regular text file and while ReadLine will read the data, it won't likely be what you need without conversion.

Thanks a lot.
When I went to do my Save As, it shows me the encoding type as Unicode. Never thought about that one. Do you have a solution for a work around to this? Until I hear back, I'm going to scower the forums for a solution.
