You just need to use an if statement to compare a preset variable - your string of characters - and the TextBox's Text property.
local text = 'StringOfCharacters'
local textboxtext = Gui.TextBox.Text
if text == textboxtext then
print'detected'
end
Alternatively, you can use the string.gmatch function, provided with any of various string patterns. More info here.
