PowerShell Help

Hi,

I have an input file that has two fields without headings separated by whitespace, where the first field contains names and the second field contains numbers. For example,

[quote]
Anthony 14
Mike 9
John 21
Sally 10
Mary 9
Jenefer 71
[/quote]

How can I write a Powershell script that will loop through the input file and set each line (n) of the first field as $NAME.n and each line (n) of the second field as $NMBR.n, where .n=line count?

Thanks

Try this


$input = ".\testdata.txt"
$data = import-csv -path $input -delimiter " " -header "name","number"
$data
