Latest Scripts from PoshCode.org

Exch07 Quota Report
Power Shell 1 script used to grab mailbox stats for a Exchange 2007 server. It saves the information into a .csv file by changing the $OUTFILE variable. The script is pretty basic but it's a simple way of having a history of how people use their inbox space. There is no method for managing the saved files. I just make it a point to delete them when I run my months end maintenance.

Out-DataTable
Creates a DataTable for an object, based on script by Marc van Orsouw

Modified WOL impl.

Determining what version of PowerShell your script is running in.

Jun 3

Written by: Karl Prosser
6/3/2008 10:40 PM

Many people recently have asked how to determine programatically what version of PowerShell their script is running in. Well in version two there is a $psversiontable variable, but this sadly isn't in V1. All is not lost though, as you can write a simple function to return a version object for v1. Below is a quick function that I wrote that I have been using for the last year or so. 

function get-psVersion
{
if ((get-Variable psversiontabl[e]) -eq $null)
{
new-Object system.Version "1.0.0.0"
}
else
{
$psversiontable.psversion
}
}
