Powershell and Excel and SQL Server
Is there a way to read an entire Excel sheet into a Powershell variable, including the values as well as the cell formatting (specifically, Interior.ColourIndex), as opposed to the RBAR-CBAC (Cell By Agonizing Cell - to extend Jeff's nomenclature), method?Thanks!P

Fail sql job if error is encountered in powershell script
I have a powershell script that has 2 steps. The script is called by a SQL agent job. If a step fails, it is sending back the error to the job but wasn't actually failing the job. I found if I use "throw", it will fail the job. However if the 1st step fails, then it exits the script. I need it to continue on but still show a job failure regardless if step 2 fails or not. Is that possible?

Forms and controls
I'm trying to generate a dynamic control from data in SQL Server.The number of rows is variable, as is the visibility of the individual radiobuttons.criteria1 radiobutton1 radiobutton2 radiobutton3 inputboxcriteria2 radiobutton1 radiobutton2 radiobutton3 inputbox....I've got this working -- except that since all the radiobuttons are on the same control, clicking radiobutton1 on criteria2 turns off any other radiobuttons, on all rows.So what I need to do now is, for each row, to put the controls into a ...container control? and then add each container to my form.I tried a UserControl and GroupBox, to no avail.Bonus marks: assuming I get my container control set up, how do I determine the selected radiobutton? Or do I set a property on the container when then radio button becomes checked?

Need a way to script out LinkedServers on a SQL 2005\2008 boxes but place the script in seperate files.

Powershell code encapsulation into exe with dynamic parameters
Might be anyone could help with solution. I need to encapsulate powershell logic into exe. At the moment I am calling *.ps1 file using an agent job with passing to it parameter. Works fine, no issues. Unfortunately I need to deploy the script on client site. Due to company ethics need to hide the code. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Oh, and of course, I know, Powershell was created for task automation and configuration management framework.

Powershell using SMO is painfully slow
this is probably more of a rant than a request for a solution....I threw a ton of time adapting and enhancing the script found in another topic here:[b][url=http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1240480-1351-1.aspx]Powershell script to script out jobs, databases, users, linked servers, logins, roles, alerts, etc from a list of servers [/url][/b]if you looked at it, each function creates it's own instance of a [i]$srv = "Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server" [/i]and does it's scripting work; i added some additional stuff that scripts out each database objects.tested it on a single box, get the script results i like, and modify the txt file to have a few more for a more robust test.just ten servers took hours with the original code; moving the SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server and other objects out of the functions,and passing them in speeded things up some, but [b]dayum[/b]; in this world of instant satisfaction, powershell is looking to me like one of those overnight batch processing things.I've found an SMO tweak like setting $Server.SetDefaultInitFields($true) so things load up front, instead of when they are referenced, but still, it's painfully slow; if i needed to scan or re-scan a list of 20 or more servers, it's going to take all day. I'd need to start adding logic to skip if exists instead of letting it always script, just to squeeze a bit of performance.

Powershell within SQL 2012 SP1 can not load any modules
I have been attempting to run a Powershell script from a SQL Server agent job on SQL2012. The script runs fine in SQL 2008R2 however, I receive the below error when attempting to import any module in SQL2012.

Powershell Multithreading with SQL Agent
Hello All,So I have 4 SQL Agent jobs that all run PowerShell scripts that utilize the multithreading abilities of PowerShell but I am running into issues. These 4 jobs are set to run every 5 minutes because they collect perfmon stats about our servers. Each job takes between 1-2:30 minutes to run to completion, each job is set to grab data for approximately 75 servers, and each PowerShell script is set to have a maximum of 6 threads running at a time. The issue I am encountering is SQL Agent will mark the job as failed if the PowerShell script reaches the end of the script but there are still active threads. I currently have it set up to check the total number of running threads and when that count reaches zero, it will finish the script. However, with all 4 of these jobs running, the script will count the total number of running threads from any of the scripts to calculate if the script is finished or not and this will get hung as the day goes on and the run times begin to overlap.Does anyone know of a good way to manage how many threads are running for a given SQL Agent job and only finish the script if the PowerShell threads for the current script have all finished executing?

Problem with Powershell and SQL Agent Job token
I'm working on a script that will transfer SQL Agent Jobs to another job server. One of the jobs uses the SQL Agent Token in a step:[code="sql"]WHERE job_id = $(ESCAPE_SQUOTE(JOBID)) [/code]Once the job is scripted out to a variable, I need to do -replace a string value with another string value to prepare the job script for the new environment. The values I want to replace are not even in this part of the script, but it causes Invoke-SQLCmd to fail because Powershell attempts to interpret the $() as an expression.Any suggestions?
