Search for a string and copy the entire line

Hello All,

I am after the script or the command which can scan the entire file for a string $PART_ID and when found to extract/copy the corresponding $PART_ID value (e.g THIRE_PTY_SOFTWARE for the 1st occurance of $PART_ID in the attached file) to a file.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks in advance
