I got a file with the following pattern:

With my Code I'm trying to sort the short lines by the number with following code:
$result = [System.IO.File]::ReadLines($file).Trim() |
Group-Object @{Expression = { [int] $_.Substring($_.Length - 8)} } | # group by InvokeID (last 8 characters of the shortline)
Where-Object { $_.Count -eq 2 } | # select only groups with two items in it (one long and one short line)
My problem is that the numbers do not always have the same length. How can I make it dynamic?. I got numbers from 1 digit to 8 digits.
Use the -replace operator with a regular expression to remove everything but trailing consecutive digits:
... |Group-Object { ($_ -replace '^.*?(\d+)$', '$1') -as [int] }
