Standard error output to Pipe input - solved

Hi,
I want to check a particular word is in standard error output or not. Can I acheive it in single command?

For example,
Delete file_name 2>error.log

cat error.log

Output:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Successfully deleted
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

where delete is some external program.

I want to do Delete <file name> and grep the word "Success" in the same command.

Thanks & Regards,
Poova.

Thanks & Regards,
Poova.
