I'm attempting to eliminate leading any leading zeroes in my date when I run the get-date cmdlet by trying: $filedate = get-date -uformat "%m-%d-%Y" $filedate = $filedate.ToString().Replace("0", "") the first line returns "01-04-2008" the second throws an error.. I want to the output to be "1-4-2008" any ideas on another way of doing this? thanks in advance
