I guess you have something like this now:
for line in text_file.readlines():
if line.find('FULLNAME')>=0:
write_file.writelines(line)
This can be better written as
for line in text_file: # No need for readlines(), a file is iterable
if 'FULLNAME' in line:
write_file.write(line) # writelines() is for writing multiple lines at once
