I don't know if that's an already available command...but a function that will do it is:

public static void DeleteLine(String file, int line)
        {
            StreamReader streamIn = new StreamReader(file);
            String newFile = "";
            for (int i = 0; i < line && !streamIn.EndOfStream; i++)
            {
                newFile += streamIn.ReadLine();
                newFile += "\r\n";
            }
            streamIn.ReadLine();
            newFile += streamIn.ReadToEnd();
            streamIn.Close();
            StreamWriter streamOut = new StreamWriter(file);
            streamOut(newFile);
            streamOut.Flush();
        }

Even better you should read the file into an ArrayList of strings per line, remove the line you want and write it out again.
