Powershell and DNS

Was trying to search for static address in a large subnet that I was working on.

start off with reading - http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/DNS-Server-PowerShell-afc2142b

retrieve the records with

$records = Get-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName koolkids.internal -computer kcdc

tried

$records| ? recorddata -like "10.10.*"

got nothing returned... :(

then check the types:

$records | get-member

DistinguishedName         Property   string DistinguishedName {get;}

HostName                  Property   string HostName {get;}

PSComputerName            Property   string PSComputerName {get;}

RecordClass               Property   string RecordClass {get;}

RecordData                Property   CimInstance#Instance RecordData {get;set;}

RecordType                Property   string RecordType {get;}

Timestamp                 Property   CimInstance#DateTime Timestamp {get;}

TimeToLive                Property   CimInstance#DateTime TimeToLive {get;set;}

notice that is was CimInstance#Instance for the RecordData

can't remember how to convert it to string on the fly.

so my colleague suggested 

$records | out-gridview

then do the filtering from there, which work nice.

if after a few coffees I remember how to sort this out. I will update.
