I have a variable called $office

$Office =   (get-aduser -Identity $Name -Properties * |select physicalDeliveryOfficeName).physicalDeliveryOfficeName 

It produces results like this

01A;514;295;632;428;485;442;277;800;175

Of course it could be shorter or longer depending on how many locations the user is in.

Each location code will ALWAYS be separated by a semicolon.

Is there a way to break that up and use each code between the semicolons as a string that I could then use a foreach statement?

Thanks

You can split it.  Ex.

$a = "01A;514;295;632;428;485;442;277;800;175"
$LocationArray = $a.split(";")

This will give you an array.  You can then extract the codes $LocationArray[0], $LocationArray[1], etc. via loop or whatever.

Like it was written for me but you beat me to the bunch.

Thanks so so much!
