Hi @Lars5 ,

Please find the solution. To store the text in variable I am reading text from the Text file.
NOTE: PLEASE ENABLE IGNORE CASE in If condition as shown in below image.
Code:
File.ReadTextFromFile.ReadText File: $'''C:\\Users\\OneDrive\\Desktop\\Input.txt''' Encoding: File.TextFileEncoding.UTF8 Content=> FileContents IF Contains(FileContents, $'''KONTOUDTOG''', True) THEN Display.ShowMessageDialog.ShowMessage Message: $'''Yes''' Icon: Display.Icon.None Buttons: Display.Buttons.OK DefaultButton: Display.DefaultButton.Button1 IsTopMost: False ButtonPressed=> ButtonPressed7 END
