ok. &nbsp; I am sure I am missing something simple, but what if I just want to write this to the host &nbsp;ie &nbsp; write-host $matches.value.<br />
<br />
<br />
When I do this I get nothing back. &nbsp; Thoughts?

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am trying to write a script to read in a test file, search for just the user and return that.<br />
<br />
SOMEDOMAIN\SomeUser &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Full Control[aasdfa]<br />
SOMEDOMAIN\SomeUser &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Partial Control[aasdfa]<br />
SOMEDOMAIN\SomeUser &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Full Control[aasdfa]<br />
<br />
I have some of the code needed and I also have the a regex statement that works. &nbsp; &nbsp;I am getting caught on the output of $Matches<br />
When I run the code and check $matches is only contains the last item found/returned. <br />
<br />
I know I am missing something simple, any insight would be appreciated :)<br />
