$file = FileOpen("test.txt", 0)

$Number = FileReadline($file, $x) 


$x = $x +1

Until $x=5

FileClose($file)

$x= 1
do

$file = FileOpen("test.txt", 0)

$Number = FileReadline($file, $x) 

MsgBox(0, "Line "&$x, $Number)
$x +=1
Until $x=5

FileClose($file)

everytime the loop start your delcaring it as being 1 again, so it cant move on.
