Note that both require exclusive access to the file. If you want shared access (e.g. to read a file that some other process has open for writing, like a log file) you have to use lower level functions or use streams (which, as Hans-Peter says, lack a ReadLn method). It's a pity that neither the standard file operations nor loadfromfile have a mean to specify shared access (or maybe they do but I couldn't find it).
