NOTE: You cannot pipe a single hashtable or an array of hashtables to the 'Table' cmdlet. You MUST pass the hashtable(s) via the -HashTable parameter. If you pipe the hastable(s) the object properties are displayed and not the hashtable key/value pairs! Creating a hashtable does permit the utilisation of spaces in the key names, requiring that the -Headers parameter does not necessarily need to be used. NOTE: This is not a standard hashtable, but a System.Collections.Specialized.OrderedDictionary object. These can be created with the [Ordered] attribute on the hashtable declaration, e.g. [Ordered] @{ Key1 = Value1; Key2 = Value2; } The following example creates a table with a single row with the hashtable keys used as the header values and the corresponding values as the first table row. #> $hashtable = [Ordered] @{ 'Column 1' = 'Some random text'; 'Column2' = 345; 'Custom Property' = $true; } Table -Hashtable $hashtable } $example16 | Export-Document -Path $Path -Format $Format -PassThru:$PassThru |
