That book is responsible for jumpstarting my PowerShell knowledge years back, and it serves both purposes: 1) training and 2) a solid, ongoing reference. http://www.amazon.com/Windows-PowerShell-Action-Second-Edition/dp/1935182137 Cheers, Trevor Sullivan From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com> [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Chenault Sent: Monday, December 16, 2013 6:51 PM To: powershell@lists.myitforum.com<mailto:powershell@lists.myitforum.com> Subject: RE: [powershell] bah It's all good.

The parser kept complaining about bracket {} not parens () so I missed it. That's a kick-self. :) Now... I know of the -Confirm:$false so I don't have to hit 'A' 329 times (the number of actual objects) but where does it go? I tried: foreach ($audit_obj in $audit_csv) -Confirm:$false and it ignored it.
