Add a String to a value in an Array Powershell

Question

I have got Strings in an array which are the names of groups. Now I would like to modify those values and connect an other String to the beginning of this String

$Groups = Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership $User $GroupArray = @()

foreach ($Group in $Groups)
{
$GroupArray += ($Group | select name)
} 
echo $("Domain\" + $GroupArray[0])

This prints something like:

Domain\@{name=Domain Users}

However I would like to get something like:

Domain\Domain Users

since you used Select-Object Name you have an object with a property named Name. it seems that you want to have JUST the value from the prop. if that is the case, then change that to Select-Object -ExpandProperty Name to get just the value. — Lee_Dailey

Why not arraylist? Then Arraylist.add(value).. It seems a lot easier to deal with. — Ranadip Dutta

The easiest way is to just set a variable equal to the foreach loop and output the data you want within the loop. — AdminOfThings

Change it to arraylist if you wish to add all the values:

$Groups = Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership $User

$arraylist = New-Object System.Collections.ArrayList
foreach ($Group in $Groups)
{
$arraylist.Add($Group.Name) | Out-Null
} 

$arraylist

PS: You can display the result collating with the Domain however you want; I have not touched that section. Hope it helps.
