Try this:

    Const ForReading = 1

    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile("c:\boot.ini", ForReading)


    Dim arrFileLines()
    i = 0
    Do Until objFile.AtEndOfStream
      Redim Preserve arrFileLines(i)
      arrFileLines(i) = objFile.ReadLine
      i = i + 1
    Loop
    objFile.Close
