I have something want to use Powershell to write. Could anyone know it? Thanks.
I use powershell to create a list.
e.g.



$SUID = @("0011", "0012", "0013", "0014", "0015")



I have a folder containing log files:



0010Log201811151440.log
0012Log201811151440.log
0013Log201811151440.log
0017Log201811151440.log
0015Log201811151440.log


I want to use Powershell to determine SUID and files matching. Such as:



0011 = file is missing
0012 = 0012Log201811151440.log
0013 = 0013Log201811151440.log
0014 = file is missing
0015 = 0015Log201811151440.log

          You can use a split method to get the first part of the name:



          $filename = "0010Log201811151440.log"
          $separator = "Log"
          $first = ($filename -split $separator)[0]
          $first

          • Dear Xaero Walk. Thanks, this is very useful to split first 4 number. I'm thinking how to split ~70 logs of filename and get first 4 number of each filename. Thanks. Best regards, Ken
