Casale [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, March 12, 2010 4:18 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Powershell Question Hey guys, I am converting a shell script into a ps script and need to parse a variable that holds the output of an executed job. at the cli (using unix tools) I do this: grep -B 3 "some_string" |grep "another_string" |cut -f 5 -d " " So basically, the output has many repetitions that have various fields different, when I find the one I want, I include 3 lines up and filter that 3rd up line to show what I want. Is this possible using built in ps syntax? Thanks, jlc ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
