  Just type it at the prompt. All commands work in PowerShell.

  Also use "SubS5tring"

  What have you tried?

  Please note that this is not a forum that excepts requests for code conversion.  There is no Windows command that does what "cut" does and in Powe4rShell you will have to write a scripot.  Start from the l9ink above and learn PowerShell or contqaqct a consultant to help you.

  The first part would be something like:

  
  

  get-content test.txt | foreach { (-split $_)[6] }

  How about this?

  ("a b c    d e                 fgh  IThinkThisIsWhatYouWant j").Split('',[System.StringSplitOptions]::RemoveEmptyEntries)[6].substring(0,6)
