If the file has Python code, then it should end with a ".py" not ".txt". If it is not a Python file, but a file with text you want to read in the program then you open the file and read it. See #6 here for how to open and read a file http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread20774.html

If you dont read the link;
yourfile = open('yourfilename.txt','r')
# r stands for read
yourtext = yourfile.readlines()
print yourtext
