Hi first time post / ask something here.  I am new to powercli and would appreciate some asstiance with the above.  To To clarify I would like to;

Read a list of virtual machine names from a .txt file OR possibly a .csv (as i attempted below) file into an Arrary.

$vms = @()

for (i$ in (import-csv vmlist.csv)) {$vms += get-vm -name i$}
