Reading the contents of text file is not a problem. i couldn't understand your rest of the query... Do you mean that if there is a word "True" in your text document which if found, you want to display the message "Finish"... if yes then try this

Sub ReadtextFile()
    Dim intEmpFileNbr As Integer, Entireline As String
    
    intEmpFileNbr = FreeFile
    
    '~~> Change this with the relevant filename
    strEmpFileName = "C:\Temp\Test.txt"
    
    '~~> open the file as readonly
    Open strEmpFileName For Input As #intEmpFileNbr
    
    Do Until EOF(intEmpFileNbr)
        '~~> Read line
        Line Input #intEmpFileNbr, Entireline
        
        If InStr(1, Entireline, "True") <> 0 Then
            MsgBox "Finish"
            Exit Do
        End If
    Loop
    '~~> Close file
    Close #intEmpFileNbr
End Sub

Dim intEmpFileNbr As Integer, Entireline As String

intEmpFileNbr = FreeFile

strEmpFileName = "C:\Documents and Settings\Test\Desktop\DemoCpcisd\RRC.TXT"

Open strEmpFileName For Input As #intEmpFileNbr

Do Until EOF(intEmpFileNbr)

Line Input #intEmpFileNbr, Entireline

If InStr(1, Entireline, "differences") <> 0 Then
MsgBox "OK"

Else
MsgBox "Not OK"

Exit Do
End If
Loop

Close #intEmpFileNbr
End Sub
