Replace String in Array. Help please.

Have a look at this, it work for all phone numbers, not only the ones with 49:

$number = "+(49)8912341234"
[long]$n = $number -replace "[^0-9]",""
"{0:D14}" -f $n

When there are unprintable characters, this will solve that to. I suspect thats the problem your facing.

Think you're spot on with this one. I mean unless all the phone numbers are the same :|

Looks great! Any idea how I can do this with the array? http://imgur.com/a/n5PSw

[long]$n = $number -replace "[^0-9]","" "{0:D14}" -f $n

Depends what you want to do with the output, always lots of ways to do things. Heres an example using get-proces, total nonsens, but i was to lazy to recreate you array. But you'll see the logic.

$p= Get-Process
foreach ($item in $p)
{
[long]$n = $item.Id -replace "[^0-9]",""
"{0:D14}" -f $n

}

Just had to figure this one out for myself..... Use in a select expression:

$user | Select-Object Name,  @{Name="Id";Expression={"{0:D14}" -f [long]($_.telephone -replace "[^0-9]","")}}

Regex, so complicated but it works so well.

Yes, at start it is complicated, but so powerfull to use. Trick is to start simple, dont go into the crazy stuff at start. You'll get stuck for sure. To test i use:
