Tricky powershell this time
Right,
So I have a function to bring up a date and time
I have a bit of code which will pull information
How the hell do I get my date and time to get pushed into the second bit of code to pull the data off the disk?1?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Any help would be great.
Thanks
Alex
So I have a function to bring up a date and time
[void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms")
[void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Drawing")
Function Prompt-For-Date
{
Param(
[string]$sDatePrompt = "Select a Date"
) #End Param
$script:dtmDate = ''
$objForm = New-Object Windows.Forms.Form
$objForm.Text = $sDatePrompt
$objForm.Size = New-Object Drawing.Size @(300,300)
$objForm.StartPosition = "CenterScreen"
$objForm.KeyPreview = $True
$objForm.Add_KeyDown({
if ($_.KeyCode -eq "Enter")
{
$script:dtmDate = $objCalendar.SelectionStart
$objForm.Close()
}
})
$objForm.Add_KeyDown({
if ($_.KeyCode -eq "Escape")
{
$objForm.Close()
}
})
$objCalendar = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.MonthCalendar
$objCalendar.ShowTodayCircle = $False
$objCalendar.MaxSelectionCount = 1
$objForm.Controls.Add($objCalendar)
$objForm.Topmost = $True
$objForm.Add_Shown({$objForm.Activate()})
[void] $objForm.ShowDialog()
return $script:dtmDate
}
$dateReturned = Prompt-For-Date -sDatePrompt "Please Select A Date"
Write-Host "Date:" $dateReturned
I have a bit of code which will pull information
function Copy-SelectedFile
{
[CmdletBinding()]
param(
[parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true)]
[ValidateScript({Test-Path -path $_})]
[string]$SourcePath,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true)]
[string]$DestinationPath,
[parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true)]
[System.Management.Automation.PSCredential]$Credential = (Get-Credential),
[parameter(ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true)]
[datetime]$MinimumAgeTime = ([datetime]::now),
[parameter(ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true)]
[datetime]$MaximumAgeTime
)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $SourcePath | Where-Object { $_.LastWriteTime -gt $MinimumAgeTime -and $_.LastWriteTime -lt $MaximumAgeTime}
$Destination = New-Item -Path $DestinationPath -ItemType Directory -Name $MinimumAgeTime.ToString('ddMMyy')
Copy-Item -Path $Files -Destination $Destination -Credential $Credential -Recurse
}
How the hell do I get my date and time to get pushed into the second bit of code to pull the data off the disk?1?!?!?!?!?!?!?

There isn't any reason to keep them separate, I just have no idea how to join them... :(

Open in new window
to the first code, and run something likeOpen in new window
or similar. Note that you need to dates for the function.
