An if statement sounds like what you need.<br />
<br />
do a foreach on your array then do a match on the value and use if /else:<br />
<br />
E.g.:
<pre><code id="code-20-40268107-1">($a = &quot;table1&quot;, &quot;table2&quot;, &quot;table3&quot;...) 
$a | % {if ($_ -eq &quot;table2&quot;) {write-host &quot;Do something&quot;} else {write-host $_ &quot;Do nothing&quot;} }</code></pre>
</div>

E.g.:

($a = "table1", "table2", "table3"...) 
$a | % {if ($_ -eq "table2") {write-host "Do something"} else {write-host $_ "Do nothing"} }

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have the following line of code:<br />
if ($IsSysObj -ne $true -and $table.FakeSystemTable -ne $true -and $table.Name -ne &quot;ignore_me&quot;)<br />
{...}<br />
I want to create an array of table names and replace '-and $table.Name -ne &quot;ignore_me&quot;' with code that will ignore values in that list. Not exactly sure how to accomplish this.<br />
I know how to create the array ($a = &quot;table1&quot;, &quot;table2&quot;, &quot;table3&quot;...) but what code would I use to exclude values within the array?
