Hi I was wondering how I could check a text file to see if the word "success" was contained in it. I know I can use filestringreader and system.io to read the file but I dont know how I would use it to check to see if the word success was in the file. Any suggestions ?

A StringReader seems just like a StreamReader so you could use InStr or .Contains to check.
