I admit I'm am new to powershell and i'm lost. I'm using powershell V 3 on Win 7.
What I really need is to process a directory of 50 to 100 text files with various names.
PS C:\> dir c:\data
Directory: C:\data
Mode LastWriteTime Length Name
---- ------------- ------ ----
-a--- 11/28/2014 11:23 PM 1213 test.txt
-a--- 11/29/2014 6:52 PM 1275 test1.txt
-a--- 11/29/2014 9:11 PM 1073 test2.txt
This is one of the text files showing all the lines.
PS C:\> get-content c:\data\test2.txt

What I need to do is parse out some of the data in each file to a CSV file (one file as one line) for input into an Excel spreadsheet.
The very bad script below gets the data I need from one file but not in the format I need.
$all = get-content c:\data\test2.txt
$server = $all[0]
$hst = $all[1]
$tme = $all[2]
$jk = $all[19]
$jk1 = -split $jk
$bwu = $jk1[6]
$jk2 = $all[5]
$jk3 = -split $jk2
$lip = $jk3[3]
$rip = $jk3[8]
$jk4 = $all[20]
$jk5 = -split $all[20]
$bwd = $jk5[6]
$server, $rip, $hst, $lip, $tme, $bwu, $bwd
fileserver
192.168.169.251
hostname
192.168.169.138

What I really want is for each of the files to have one line in the output file.
