Timed Text File to LCD

I'm working on a small project where I need to run lines from a text file at a certain time on a 632 USB screen.

Example:

00 seconds: Action 1.2
10 seconds: Action 3.4
25 seconds: Action 7.2

It doesn't need to be dynamic, just reading the correct line from the file at the correct time. Are there any suggestions how I can achieve this in CrystalControl2?

You can read a line(s) from a text file for display on an LCD. You can have CC2 refresh the data from this text file on a timed basis (every 10 seconds/10 minutes/whatever). CC2 can not refresh data from this file say at 1:00, 2:00, etc.

There are screens written in the User Screen Library to read data from a text file, if that helps. https://forum.crystalfontz.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=4163
