Hi,

I am new to Powershell and would like to know how I can Search a Log File For Number Range Between 60000 and 350000.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

I was able to construct what I was looking for even though I am sure it could be done simpler...


$Dir = "C:\Scripts\Logs\xms logs"
$Folders = get-childitem $Dir
$logfilepath = "C:\Scripts\xmsdata.csv"
$regex = [regex]'(?i)6[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|7[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|8[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|9[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|2[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|3[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]|4[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]ms'

foreach ($subdir in $Folders)
{
$TargetFolder = $subdir
$Files = get-childitem $Dir\$TargetFolder -include *.log -recurse
if ($Files)
{
foreach ($File in $Files)
{
$Sel = Get-ChildItem $path | Get-Content | Foreach { $regex.Matches($_) }
out-file -filepath $logfilepath -append -noclobber -inputobject $Sel
}
}
}
