    Hi, I have this command to get some values:

    $computer = "SRV001"
get-date($CollectionTime)

Get-WmiObject win32_volume -computer $computer | 
select PSComputerName ,name, label, 
@{Name="Capacity (GB)";Expression={[math]::Round($_.Capacity/1GB)}}


    i would like to add one more thing, the "$CollectionTime" value. I am running this command on a lot of computers so i want the value to be the same on all. if i do it like this

    @{Name="CollectionTime"; Expression={get-date}}

    Then the value will change a little bit since this commands takes some seconds.

    select : The "Expression" key has a type, System.DateTime, that is not valid; expected types are {System.String, System.Management.Automation.ScriptBlock}.

    $CollectionTime = get-date

    I highly recommend that you learn PowerShell before trying to copy and use code.  You need to learn what variables are and how to sue them as well as what CmdLets are and how to use them.

    Learn PowerShell
