Open in online IDE

;tmp$ = ReadLine(file)
tmp$ = "testing line"
If(Instr(tmp$,"New list")) = 0 Then
Print "New List not in string"
Else
Print "New list found in string"
EndIf

add 'New list' to the string tmp$ and see its located, the same is if ReadLine(file) is used. one extra note Instr() returns the position its found within the string.
