  //allow you to open a dilogbox and load the file you desire 
            OpenFileDialog record = new OpenFileDialog();
            record.FileName = "";
            record.Filter = "Text Files|*.txt";
            if (record.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
            {
                string file = record.FileName;
              string[]   text = File.ReadAllLines(file);
