Alternatively, you can just address the required property directly:<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-41915131-1">$test = (Get-WmiObject Win32_SystemEnclosure).SerialNumber</code></pre>
</div>


Alternatively, you can just address the required property directly:


$test = (Get-WmiObject Win32_SystemEnclosure).SerialNumber

Easy A footech! Thank you very much.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'm working on a PS script that will allow me to obtain the serial number from our workstations (Dell service tag for example.) and store it in a variable. I can obtain this by running the command: Get-WmiObject win32_SystemEnclosure | select serialnumber<br />
<br />
I get the following results (X being the Dell Service Tag):<br />
<b>serialnumber<br />
------------<br />
XXXXXXX</b><br />
<br />
I would like to remove the first two lines (serialnumber and ----------------) from the output and have only the service tag display. From there, when I request the string stored in the variable, it will only show the service tag.<br />
PS&gt;$test<br />
<br />
XXXXXXX<br />
<br />
PS&gt;<br />
<br />
Any ideas? Thank you for your time.
