What have you tried so far to accomplish this? Do you want someone to provide a ready-made solution for you?

what exactly do you mean by "upload" here: to read the file into a string ? to read the file into ... ?

Hi
Here is the code

C#

private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string path=comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString()+".txt";
    string[] myfile;
    if (System.IO.File.Exists(path))
    {
        myfile=System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(path);
    }
}
