Is there a PowerShell string does not contain cmdlet or syntax

Question

In PowerShell I m reading in a text file  I m then doing a Foreach-Object over the text file and am only interested in the lines that do NOT contain strings that are in  arrayOfStringsNotInterestedIn   What is the syntax for this      Get-Content  filename   Foreach-Object

To exclude the lines that contain any of the strings in $arrayOfStringsNotInterestedIn, you should use:

(Get-Content $FileName) -notmatch [String]::Join('|',$arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn)

The code proposed by Chris only works if $arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn contains the full lines you want to exclude.

You can use the -notmatch operator to get the lines that don t have the characters you are interested in         Get-Content  FileName   foreach-object         if     -notmatch  arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn

If  arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn is an  array  you should use -notcontains   Get-Content  FileName   foreach-object        if   arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn -notcontains              or better  IMO   Get-Content  FileName   where    arrayofStringsNotInterestedIn -notcontains
