Read just a part of a big string

Question

I have a large string to read and it's always different, but one word is always the same. The word is MESSAGE, so if my string reader comes across that word it has to write that whole string to disc. I did some code but it's not working, the if segment never triggers, what is wrong here?

string aLine;
StringReader strRead = new StringReader(str);
aLine = strRead.ReadLine();

if (aLine == "MESSAGE")
{
    //Write the whole file on disc
}

You can change your code to work with Contains.

            string aLine;
            StringReader strRead = new StringReader(str);
            aLine = strRead.ReadLine();

            if (aLine.Contains("MESSAGE"))
            {

              //Write the whole file on disc

            }
