    Or just use quotes:

    "$CurrentTape hello world"

    P.S. - ToString(0 is a Net method and not a C# method.  It can be called from any CLR language.

    $CurrentTape.DaysUsed  does not exist. $CurrentTape is an [int].

    My fault

    [int]$CurrentTape = 12

$MyObject = New-Object -TypeName PSObject
Add-Member -InputObject $MyObject -Type NoteProperty -Name 'FIELD-1' -Value ($CurrentTape + 'These are last days')
    The velue result have to be: 12 These are last days

    Hi,

    To concatenate int and string you have to used the c# .ToString() method. Your code should be :

    [int]$CurrentTape = 12

$MyObject = New-Object -TypeName PSObject
Add-Member -InputObject $MyObject -Name 'FIELD-1' -Value ($CurrentTape.ToString() + ' These are last days') -MemberType NoteProperty

    Hope it helps,

    Sure. Sorry for being not exactly correct. It was a language abuse.

    You weren't wrong.  I was just clarifying a bit and posting one of the other ways to do this in PowerShell.
