New to PowerShell

[mattb025]

Ok, I am new to scripting.
Done a little work with Bat files, VB, and C

I have been playing with PowerShell for a little while. I have not found a way to complie it?

Is it command line?
Is it scripting lanugage?
Can anybody tell me how we are supposed to use it?
Can I complie it?

Any thoughts would be appericated.

Is it command line?

Yes, but from within the PowerShell window not a regular CMD prompt.

Is it scripting lanugage?

Yes

Can anybody tell me how we are supposed to use it?

Refer to microsoft.com for specific examples on the scripting center. PS is mainly supported just by Exchange 2007 right now, but longhorn will also support it. Using PS you can do everything (and more) that you can do with the mouse for administering Exchange 2007. There is support as well for XP & Vista, though not to the degree that exists with Exchange.

Can I complie it?

No

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark

Thanks for heads up
Does not look like PS will work for what I want.
