Re: comparing two arrays and displaying scalar matches

Thanks for that...however my @array contains records like:
@array = ("TEST SUCCEEDED OK | 11", "TEST FAILED ABORT | 24", "WORDONE", "SCENARIO 2");
So lets say @pattern = ("TEST", "SCENARIO");
I will need the final output to say:
TEST SUCCEEDED OK | 11
SCENARIO 2
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Did you try the code posted in Re: comparing two arrays and displaying scalar matches? Would you care to explain why `TEST FAILED ABORT \| 24` does not match the pattern `TEST`? Why are you not wrapping code in `<code>` tags?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

`TEST FAILED ABORT \| 24` also contains the pattern `TEST`. Why shouldn't `TEST FAILED ABORT \| 24` be in the output as well?
