How to output to two columns
I would use a custom object then export the results. Not knowing how your data is structured, I can only give you an idea of what it would look like. $backups = @() #<Get Data somehow> Foreach ($backup in $backups) { $backupnode = GetBackupNode $backupnode = Get-BackupNode.hostname...- blister911

Waiting for open windows to close
Instead of piping all the process to the stop command, you could put them into a variable and then loop through them to stop. Wait a bit and then check if they are stopped or still running. $processes = get-process | ? { $_.mainwindowtitle -ne "" -and $_.processname -ne "powershell" }...- blister911

Comparing a CSV to a Share
Matt Are you still in need of assistance? I've been away for a while, but I'd be willing to help out, now, if I can. If so, what would determine if a file was "old and need to be removed"? They don't show as a user in your AD user export? Assumptions I'm making until I hear from you: 1...- blister911

How to sum a column
Your code is a bit confusing. But if that is all that isn't working, try this: param ( [Parameter(Mandatory)] [String] $Path, [decimal] $days ) $text = get-content $path (Get-Content $path).Replace("`t", " ") | set-content "C:\anil\input555.txt" $path = "c:\anil\input555.txt"...- blister911

How to read special characters
You could do the search and replace in one step. Mine are separate functions, because there are some times when I just want to be notified that there are special characters present and then prompt for what action to take; replace or leave. Anyway, here is how to do it on one step...- blister911

Cannot index into a null array error in PowerShell when renaming a folder against a SQL query
I don't know SQL, however, I'm wondering if there needs to be a semi-colon at the end of your SQL select statement. $SqlQuery = "Select Alpha, siteid from MigrationStaging.Map.CashSiteId__ProteanAlpha where siteid = 'AiB3304';" Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people...- blister911

Rename-Item with Date and Time for excel file
It's not the most elegant, but this should work Get-ChildItem "C:\Users\Documents\MicroApps\SCAPH_ACL_Project\1_SCAPH_Main\Final_Output_z.xlsx" | ForEach-Object {$_.LastWriteTime = Get-Date; Rename-Item -Path $_ -NewName "Final_Output_z.xlsx"} Light travels faster than sound.

Need a PS script
Chris, Most of us are willing to assist you with fixing logic/syntax, but I don't know if anyone is going to want to write the script for you. We've all been where you are. But you need to give it a shot, so you can learn how to do it. Then come back with something we can work from/with if...- blister911
