Solution 2

//whole textbox data is copied to a string
string strTextBoxData = YourTextbox.text;

string[] strSplitResult = str.Split(" ", StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);//string array will now have all data index by index

Solution 1

You may read the text file line by line (see "Code: Reading a Text File One Line at a Time (Visual C#)"[^]) until you hit the needed one.
Then you may use the String.Split[^] method to get requested fields.
