Find Exact Match Of A Word In A Textbox If It Exists

I need a way to tell me if a certain word already exists in a multi-lined textbox. Right now I have a multi-lined textbox with some names inside it. After each name I add a newline so all the names are on their own line inside the textbox.I use this code to add names to the textbox, Text Box1. AppendText(ComboBox1.Text + vbCrLf)Then I have been checking if the name exists by doing it this way,[code]The problem is that Ted and Teddy return the same when searching for Ted even if Ted isnt in the textbox at all, I have googled for the last few days and even tried RegularExpressions and still the same results. I think this might be a simple true or false check but I may be wrong... or even a loop or something line by line.
