But this not working,
### Get all AD Computers ### Get-ADComputer -Filter * | select name >> .\file.txt ### This command clean white spaces / empty lines in the txt file ### (Get-Content .\file.txt) | Foreach {$_.TrimEnd()} | where {$_ -ne ""} | Set-Content file.txt ### Get Time and date from computers in the txt file ### $servers = (Get-Content .\file.txt) ForEach ($server in $servers) { $time = ([WMI]'').ConvertToDateTime((gwmi win32_operatingsystem -computername $server).LocalDateTime) $server + ' ' + $time } | Eport-CSV -Path .\File.csv -NoType

Hey Zvi,
I just went through this same predicament last night! Here's a very helpful post about the .CSV and powershell.

Let me see if I can put together (gotta go to work here in about 1/2 hour) a quick script that will do what you want.

$servers = (Get-Content .\file.txt) $holdarr = @() $pNames=@("Server","Time") ForEach ($server in $servers) { $time = ([WMI]'').ConvertToDateTime((gwmi win32_operatingsystem -computername $server).LocalDateTime) # Don't need this anymore, but it will provide output during script execution... $server + ' ' + $time $obj = New-Object PSObject $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Server" -value $server $obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Time" -value $time $holdarr+=$obj $obj=$null } $holdarr | Export-CSV -Path .\File.csv -NoType
# Thanks to this internet post, but I did modify the code to try out a jagged array for my own purposes....
# http://sharepoint-community.net/profiles/blogs/powershell-from-an-array-to-comma-separated-file-csv-via-theAnyways, yeah, powershell and .csvs. This is the actual link, but my code on spiceworks is a modification of his code on sharepoint-community.net. And I created a modification that should work for you.....please let me know.
Code on, my friend,

Too complicated:
$props = @( @{ N = 'Server'; E = { $_.__SERVER } }, @{ N = 'Time'; E = { $_.ConvertToDateTime($_.LocalDateTime) } } ) Get-Content .\servers.txt | ForEach{gwmi win32_operatingsystem -computername $_} | select $props | Export-CSV .\servertime.csv -NoType
With PowerShell these things can be done very easily.
This method can make all of you querying easier.
