Out-GridView

Short description
Sends output to an interactive table in a separate window.

Syntax


Description
The Out-GridView cmdlet sends the output from a command to a grid view window where the output is displayed in an i
nteractive table.  This feature requires Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 with Service Pack 1. 

You can use the following features of the table to examine your data:

-- Hide, Show, and Reorder Columns: To hide, show, or reorder a column, right-click a column header and then click 
"Select Columns."

-- Sort. To sort the data, click a column header. Click again to toggle from ascending to descending order.

-- Quick Filter. Use the "Filter" box at the top of the window to search the text in the table. You can search for 
text in a particular column, search for literals, and search for multiple words. 

-- Criteria Filter. Use the "Add criteria" drop-down menu to create rules to filter the data. This is very useful f
or very large data sets, such as event logs.

-- Copy and paste. To copy rows of data from Out-GridView, press CTRL+C (copy). You can paste the data into any tex
t or spreadsheet program.
