File system object write

Boe, Sincere thanks for this excellent bit code! You definitely earned some cred with this critical fix to a missing component of export-csv. I kept getting an error that was basically telling me that something was going wrong with parsing the strings.

After digging in a bit adding some Write-Verbose and deconstructing the stringbuilder strings, I found that substituting a single quote for each of the escaped double quotes used with stringbuilder. This might be attributable to single quote versus double quote escaped content. Would you be so kind to tell me, why the following code is not sending the information that i just read to the csv file?

Just want to say thanks! This is another example of items that make me read your blog and look forward to the next article! You are commenting using your WordPress.

Does that really work? Does Write-Output return the thing it's writing? And does the foreach loop magically accumulate it? PalleDue Yes. Write-Output is optional, though.

Ansgar Wiechers: Thanks. I knew that just putting outputThing would return the value, but I wasn't aware that Write-Output had the same effect. Always good to learn something new.
