I've introduced more manager to the following:

You always have choice:

1. Cheap

2. Fast

...

How about outputting $dbCommand to the console to ensure it is a valid command?

If you mean changing

$sqlSnapin = Get-PSSnapin | where {$_.Name -eq "SqlServerCmdletSnapin110"}

if($sqlSnapin -eq $null)

{

Add-PSSnapin SqlServerCmdletSnapin110

}

to

#$sqlSnapin = Get-PSSnapin | where {$_.Name -eq "SqlServerCmdletSnapin110"}

#if($sqlSnapin -eq $null)

#{

#Add-PSSnapin SqlServerCmdletSnapin110

#}

Then I think you may be correct.

SQL Server 2012? If so I believe that it has switched to Modules. See here.

Import-Module "sqlps"
