Thanks Afrow UK (Based on his idea of Function "ReadFileLine" 2003-11-25)
 
 
Get line in file specified with number.
 
 
Syntax:
${LineRead} "[File]" "[LineNumber]" $var
 
"[File]"         ; Input text file
                 ;
"[LineNumber]"   ; [No|-No]
                 ;   3    line number from start
                 ;   -5   line number from end
                 ;
$var             ; Result: Line
 
 
Note:
-Error flag if input file isn't exists
-Error flag if line number not found
 
 
 
Example:
Section
	${LineRead} "C:\a.log" "-1" $R0
	; $R0="Last line$\r$\n"
SectionEnd*\
