Powershell CSV Import Issue

Question

Hi all,

I am tearing out what little hair I have left. I am performing an import-csv routine, filtering it down to one record, to then update one element of that record. Powershell behaves nicely when I want to view the value of the record, but when I go to set a new value, it seems to have Alzheimers and can't find the element that is obviously there. I have tried workarounds to no avail short of making a lengthy code which I need prescribe the element names again to just be in the correct order.

Is anybody able to tell me why this is happening or a viable work-around. Screenshot provided.
Thank you

You're creating an array, not a scalar value. Arrays don't have a 'Version' property.

$InstallerName = "Install_Edge.ps1"
$Config_Content_Full = Import-Csv "c:\junk\Installer_versions.csv"
$Item =    @($Config_Content_Full | Where-Object {$_.InstallerName -like    $InstallerName})
$NotItem = @($Config_Content_Full | Where-Object {$_.InstallerName -notlike $InstallerName})

$Item |
    ForEach-Object{
        $_.Version
        $_.Version = "AAAA"
    }
