creating a counter with a for each loop

I need to pass a counter as an argument to a function within a for each loop in vb.net.

my loop:

For Each line In inFileContents.Split(arg, StringSplitOptions.None)
Dim objFtpFileLine As New FtpFileLineClass()
outStatusString = Upload_ToDatabase(FileId, LineNumer, line)
Next

The counter will be assigned to the variable LineNumber.

Any help would be nice.

Thank you.

That's pretty close...more like:

        Dim lines() As String = inFileContents.Split(vbCrLf.ToCharArray, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
        For i As Integer = 0 To lines.Length - 1
            Dim objFtpFileLine As New FtpFileLineClass()
            outStatusString = objFtpFileLine.Upload_ToDatabase(FileId, i, lines(i))
        Next

Thank you all for your help.

One small question.

I see that the first line to be read is zero element, how can that be altered, so that the first line read is 1?

Thank you

would it be to change: For LineNumber As Integer = 0 To lines.Length - 1

To: For LineNumber As Integer = 1 To lines.Length - 1
