How to read the 3rd line from the T

Comment:

Hi Friend, In batch code, is it possible to read a particular line from the text file. For eg., Text file "test1.txt" contains the following text.... data1 data2 data3 data4 data5 I need to read the 3 line of the "test1.txt" file and print that line alone (Ie.., It should echo the 3 line alone "data3") Is there any option to resolve this issue.... Thank in Advance. Urs, Vinoth
