Question

I looking for way how update noteproperty in existing psobject, for example I have system.array of psobjects ($a):

Group                                Assigment
-----                                ---------

Group2                               Office

It's not really clear what is your problem : select the good object or update it's value ?

$col=@() 
$props=@{"group"="group1";"assignment"="home"}
$col += new-object pscustomobject -property $props
$props2=@{"group"="group2";"assignment"="office"}
$col += new-object pscustomobject -property $props2

#select object with home assignment
$rec=$col | where {$_.assignment -eq "home"}
#replace the value
$rec.assignment="elsewhere"

#display collection with updated value
$col
