the output from this script is too wide for the screen and I can't figure out how to apply .Substring() to it to suppress part of the path
i've written script find files containing given string, output wide posh truncates , i'm losing valuable portion off right-hand side. i'm trying figure out how apply .substring() suppress base path. here's script:
$mystring="tblperspeopleinfo"
# version gives me full path, can result in lengthy, truncated string
# string in was1reports project
$myssdtpath ="\\servername\users\christian.bahnsen\my documents\visual studio 2008\projects\was1reports\"
ls $myssdtpath-recurse | select-string $mystring | select -unique path
again, want take output on last line , apply .substring(95) (the length of path stored in $myssdtpath) to i'll remainder of path.
thanks assistance

just use substring
ls $myssdtpath-recurse | select-string $mystring | %{$_.path.substring($myssdtpath.length)}
