Use IsolatedStorageFileStream to get and open the file from saved path location. Then read with StreamReader object.

    IsolatedStorageFileStream fileStream = storage.OpenFile(filePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
    using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(fileStream))
    {
      string line;
      while ((line = reader.ReadLine()) != null)
      {
        string[] temp1Arr = line.Split(',');

        //Manipulate your string values stored in array here 
      }
    }

Hope it helps!
