you're way is a little long.

public static void Main()
{
   ReadFromFile("c:\\MyTextFile.txt");
}

static void ReadFromFile(string filename)
{
   StreamReader SR;
   string S;
   SR=File.OpenText(filename);
   S=SR.ReadLine();
   while(S!=null)
   {
      Console.WriteLine(S);
      S=SR.ReadLine();
   }
   SR.Close();
}

and to top it off you never use

StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();

in your method
