Here's an example, as a button click event, that includes notations for what's going on. Hope it helps.

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
                //enter your own directory of your .raw file here
                using (StreamReader sReader = new StreamReader(@"C:\directory\testing.raw"))
                {
                    string line;
                    while ((line = sReader.ReadLine()) != null)
                    {
                        if (line.Contains("&login="))
                        {
                            //this is formatting the line that contains your string.
                            //first it will search for &login=, then move 7 characters
                            //over since &login= is 7 characters long, and assuming
                            //you want to exclude &login= from your ouput
                            line = line.Substring(line.IndexOf("&login=") + 7);

                            //here, your start index is 0 since we removed &login= by
                            //using the above statement.  line.IndexOf(" ") is searching
                            //for the next blank space after &login=
                            line = line.Substring(0, line.IndexOf(" "));
                            MessageBox.Show(line);
                        }

                    }
                }
            }

Thank u sir.This code is very helpful.But sir what i can do in the case of large files?At first time i need to read only 32K of the large dump file and need to store it to a byte buffer after that i have to find out or search for the required strings from that buffer.This process repeats until the end of that dump file.At that time i need to consider the boundary strings(that may split and may include in the next coming chunk ) of the buffer to check whether it is the required string or not.Please help me to prepare a C# code for these much of things.

neethujoeph, since I've answered your original request and you're asking a new question, it's probably best that you open a new question thread and we can go from there.
