Powershell script to append an extension to a file, input from CSV
- by Jeremy
Hi All,
All I need is to have an Excel list of file paths and use Powershell to append (not replace) the same extension on to each file.
It should be very simple, right? The problem I'm seeing is that if I go input-csv -path myfile.csv | write-host I get the following output:
@{FullName=C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\appendto.me}
@{FullName=C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\append_list.csv}
@{FullName=C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\leavemealone.txt}
In other words it looks like it's outputting the CSV "formatting" as well.
However if I just issue import-csv -path myfile.csv, the output is what I expect:
FullName
--------
C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\appendto.me
C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\append_list.csv
C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\leavemealone.txt
Clearly there's no file called "@{FullName=C:\Users\jpalumbo\test\leavemealone.txt}" and a rename on that won't work, so I'm not sure how to best get this data out of the import-csv command, or whether to store it in an object, or what.
Thanks!!
