gawk search parameters


I've been trying to find out how to search a file for a particular line containing two string expressions. Specifically, I want to search a text file for those lines containing the the word "Error" and NOT the word "ignored". Anybody know? I search for the word "Error" like so:

gawk '/Error/' error >> realerror
