Try a different approach...

C#

string theFileContentsAsString = File.ReadAllText("final.txt");
            int[] theStringAsArray = theFileContentsAsString.ToCharArray().Select(c => Convert.ToInt32(c.ToString())).ToArray();
            //bind theStringArray to listbox here

Otherwise read like this. Here you can read a single character in loop till it reaches EOF.

C#

using (StreamReader reader1 = File.OpenText(@"final.txt"))
    {
        do
        {
             char next = (char)reader1.Read();
             Console.WriteLine(next);
        }
        while(!reader1.EndOfStream);
    }
