Thanks so much. I was really stumped when trying to figure out how to change all the values in a column. Your example really helped me out.

@jackedprogrammer - These PowerShell/CSV video tutorials are fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. These tutorials are very useful. I am starting to dabble in PowerShell for my job and it's both tough and awesome. I'm still learning how to comb through AD to list certain security groups for specific computers or account expiration dates for a given set of users.

Hey man love your videos thus far.
I just humbly ask that you upload your videos in 1080p 60fps. It’s kind of hard to see the words and it is PowerShell, which is text.

Thanks a lot for this tutorial but could you explain how can we remove a member in array?

[guangtingzoeli]

why we need input file and output file? So that means if I just add extra information to the excel and save as csv file, run the new command again, it doesn't work?

hey thanks for this. im having some problems where i have a coloumn header in SQL Server called [Currency Code] and all i need to show inside that is "£" but when the sql script converts to csv the "£" shows as an "?" instead. also how can i just remove the coloumn header from my sql output?

Hi your video is helpful for sure. But it adds column at the end. Is there a way to add column at the start ?

Hi am from tiktok good vids, am a helpdesk guy and I have to use PowerShell to rename stuff in office365, maybe you will do video about migrate users from Windows server to azure? About move exchange I saw a lot videos but there is a still a hole in videos about move fully to cloud

I have multiple order files but it does not generate a header, I need to export the order form and then convert into the CSV and then use It with my application to process (need to run the loop and all excel files convert from the folder and imported into another folder, where a parse happened and then the new header is being built, which video to see?

Do you have an example of creating a script to take the table output of an existing command and create the objects so that they are formatted into a CSV? For example alot of powershell commands print to screen the output but I would like to develop the understanding and skill to create my own script to format that data to CSV....So that I can also eventually take that CSV and save it as an xlsx file.

Hi i was having issues extracting a compare-object output to a csv file

Thankyou in advance
