Jim, could you provide an example on how you would call the fileclose method from the PS console?

Perhaps doing the string parsing and object construction inside of Posh? Would make it easier to read. Replaced :write-output -i $resultwith:$gblObject = @()foreach ($line in $result) { $myObject = '' | select Server,FileID,Path,Username,Locks,Permission $l = $line -split ',' $myObject.Server = $l[0...

Sure. But your using the wrong slashes. use the backslash and it should work.ls servernameroot
