I want to loop through a collection of items and append semicolon after each item.

Example Output values from mycollection: 5590 6063 1213

Expected Output: 5590;6063;1213

Below is my code.

for ($i = 0; $i -lt $myCollection.Count; $i++) 
{
$cmID =  $cmID + $myCollection[$i].Label + ";"
}
$cmID.Substring(0,$cmsID.Length-1) #This is to remove the last semicolon

Using above code, I am getting output as:

55905590;6063;1213

But I want the output as: 5590;6063;1213

just add $cmID ="" before the for loop and it should be fine. — Damjan Tomic

First of all this is not related to SharePoint so should be on Stack Exchange.

PowerShell does not need to be verbose. You can do what you need very simply:

$myCollection -join ";"

$myCollection = "Apple","Pear","Banana","Orange"
$cmID = ""
foreach($item in $myCollection)
{
    $cmID += $item + ";"
}
Write-Host $cmID
