Have you tried $($Array[0].Name)?

Hi Joe,

This is a result of the export-csv function. For some reason it does that, it puts in in a different order. It really annoyed me too. I usually just open in in Excel and then re-order from there if need to.

I modified the various AD attributes I want to grab so I get the info I need, but regardless of the order I put the commands in the script, they always come out the same way (whether displayed on screen or exported to a file).

This is how I have the script configured:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory

$aResults = @()
$List = Get-Content “c:\temp\names.txt”

ForEach($Item in $List){
$User = Get-ADUser -Filter{displayName -like $Item} -Properties employeenumber, sn, GivenName, samaccountname, mail

$hItemDetails = New-Object -TypeName psobject -Property @{
EmployeeNumber = $User.employeenumber
LastName = $User.sn
FirstName = $User.givenname
UserName = $User.SamAccountName
Email = $User.mail}

Add data to array

$aResults += $hItemDetails


}

$aResults | Export-csv -Path c:\Temp\EmpUpdate.csv -notypeinformation

You can see in the script that I have the data ordered as employeenumber, lastname, firstname, samaccountname, email.

However, the output always comes out samaccountname, email, employeenumber, firstname, lastname.
