How can I clean up the below / get it to work? Goals are listed within comment blocks. Thank you for the help.
$Julian = (Get-Date).DayOfYear
$Path = "C:\Users\Public\Desktop\"
<# Ultimate Goal (so that I don't have to add/update variable
Returns files as objects; but haven't figured out how to use
"Foreach-Object" yet #>
$uFiles = (get-ChildItem -Path
$Path *.$Julian)
<# Interm Goal - Use variable array to act as the input and
only run the "if" statement one time (if possible) #>
$iFiles = "File1",
"File2",
"File3"
<# Current process #>
$cFiles = "File1"
if ((Get-ChildItem -Path
$Path -Filter $cFiles*.$Julian |
get-content |
Measure-Object -line).Lines -gt 1)
{write-host Use
$cFiles} else {write-host
Do NOT Use $cFiles}
$cFiles = "File2"
if ((Get-ChildItem -Path
$Path -Filter $cFiles*.$Julian |
get-content |
Measure-Object -line).Lines -gt 1)
{write-host Use
$cFiles} else {write-host
Do NOT Use $cFiles}
$cFiles = "File3"
if ((Get-ChildItem -Path
$Path -Filter $cFiles*.$Julian |
get-content |
Measure-Object -line).Lines -gt 1)
{write-host Use
$cFiles} else {write-host
Do NOT Use $cFiles}
