PowerShell: Comparing dates

Question

I am querying a data source for dates. Depending on the item I am searching for, it may have more than date associated with it.

get-date ($Output | Select-Object         


        

Answer 1

As Get-Date returns a DateTime object you are able to compare them directly. An example:

(get-date 2010-01-02) -lt (get-date 2010-01-01)

will return false.
