If you text is managable (<~ 5MB), you get the whole file in one go. Also
the FSO is slow and provides no functionality the VBA does not natively
have.

Dim AllFile() As String
Dim FileNum As Long
Dim i As Long

FileNum = FreeFile

Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Book2.csv" For Input As #FileNum
AllFile = Split(Input(LOF(FileNum), FileNum), vbNewLine)
Close #FileNum

For i = LBound(AllFile) + 2 To UBound(AllFile)
'Do something
Debug.Print AllFile(i)
Next

I have the following code and it works as is but I would like the code to
start reading at line three of the text file. Is that possible and if so,
how?

Public Sub GetIt()
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Dim r As Integer

Set ImpRng = ActiveCell

strFile = Application.GetOpenFilename
strFile = fs.GetFileName(strFile)

Open strFile For Input As #1
r = 0

Do While Not EOF(1) 'Want to start at line three of text file
Line Input #1, data
ActiveCell.Offset(r, 0) = LTrim(data)
r = r + 1
Loop
Close #1

End Sub
