search in array values - powershell

Question

I've an array with 10 values (0 to 9). Each array value output is a multi-liner. Here is what it looks like for example -

C:>arrval[0]
12345
34593433598434
error1
357948557
C:>arrval[1]
238296879234
error1
93454753503
error2

I'm checking to see if we can print only the error portion in an array value.

Something like this?

$arrval -split "`n" |  where {$_ -like "*error*"}

Thanks for trying! It prints the whole array value. I'm already filtering the array values using Select-String. It results only the array values that has errors.

Please ignore the above comment. I accidentally hit enter. Here is an output example - error1 error1 error2

Sorry, yes. I agree! I was using foreach ($error in $arrval){ $error -split "n" | where {$_ -like "error"}}. In this scenario, $error.gettype() returns system.object` where $arrval.gettype() returns System.Array. Looks like that's the problem? :|
