Thanks Shawn. I have yet to use Powershell but this article has been a timely prompt.

Thanks, I wish my current job required me to use it more than I do. Hehe

You are welcome...here is one I left out cause I did not know if the link would stay active or not:
Bing Visual Search - PowerShell

If the link does not work, just go to http://www.bing.com search for just "PowerShell". You should see a tab show up under the search box called "Visual Search". It is a cool little graphical tool Bing created to browse the major commands and show some syntax.

Nice introduction to PowerShell! For a bit more geared toward those interested in SQL Server and PowerShell, I wrote a two-part introduction entitled Practical PowerShell for SQL Server Developers and DBAs that shows, among other cool features, how to navigate in "SQL space" just like you can navigate in a file system. See https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/database-administration/practical-powershell-for-sql-server-developers-and-dbas-%E2%80%93-part-1/

Nice article, I'm a recent fan of PowerShell. I didn't know about the ISE. I found a use for it beyond metrics and administration that other DBA's might find useful: data traffic. I route a large chunk of our EDI traffic (text files mostly) into filetables with it. The script opens the file, reads what it needs, makes the necessary db calls, logs it, and moves it to point B. In the past I would have considered a CLR routine, but now I find myself asking myself if I can do it in PowerShell first.
