Use the awesome formatting operator -f to insert dynamic information into text! You can store the formatting information in a variable and use it in a loop to format multiple lines of text. Here, the format in $format will tell PowerShell to format the first dynamic information into a six-digit number and to place the second dynamic information in a column nine characters wide and format it as currency:
PS > $format = '{0:D6} {1,9:C}'
PS > (4, 33.20), (12, 8.34), (2, 44.30) | Foreach-Object {'Items Price'}{ $format -f $_[0], $_[1] }
Items Price
000004 33,20 $
000012 8,34 $
000002 44,30 $
This sample turns pairs of numbers into a neatly formatted column. You can use Import-CSV to read information from a CSV-file, too.
