Powershell Child Item Question

HighlanderSword · January 2021

When using get-childitem is there a way to upper case the selected results .

so for my example I'm returning the file name , I want to convert just the results of the below to uppercase as some files are in mixed case

Get-ChildItem "D:\*.*" -Recurse|select Name

Have you tried using the ToUpper() method of the String object?

how do i do that when doing a select properties, i tried

Get-ChildItem "D:\" -Recurse | select name | select @{n='name';e={$_.toupper()}} and it returned no data at all

You need to specify the 'name' field you want to call the ToUpper method in.

$_.name.ToUpper()
