Roland,
You can't pass a .NET [Object] from one PowerShell session to another (not without some advanced hacking, anyway). To make this work, you'll probably have to -join or [String]::Join() the array values together into a single, contiguous string, pass the entire string as a single parameter to the secondary script, and then -Split or [String].Split() the String into an array again.

I have an array: $CM_Roles = @("'CM_Global_Administration','Full Administrator','ALL'";"'CM_Global_Packagers','Application Administrator','ALL'") Two entries, separated with ";" and each one separated with "," This works fine: foreach ($x in $CM_Roles) {$x} 'CM_Global_Administration','Full Administrator','ALL' 'CM_Global_Packagers','Application Administrator','ALL' I have the single quotes and can use split to get another array: foreach ($x in $CM_Roles) {$x -split ","} 'CM_Global_Administration' 'Full Administrator' 'ALL' 'CM_Global_Packagers' 'Application Administrator' 'ALL' All good. Still with quotes. But I need to pass the array to another ps-script, namely an x86 like that: &"$env:SystemRoot\syswow64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" ".\CM_Assign_Security.ps1" @cm_roles But the script with this in it: Foreach ($x in $args) {$x} only returns the values without the single quotes or ',': CM_Global_Administration Full Administrator ALL CM_Global_Packagers Application Administrator ALL I've also tried like a million variations, like with param() in the script. Then I only get one array entry back. For sure someone knows how to do that? And it is probably trivial, but google wasn't helping. Those examples never had to use quotes. -R
