    User ID Change Script

    Best file CSV would be

    OldUser, NewUser
    "userid1","newuserid"

    This will allow for odd characters in the id if they exist.

    Assume input file like so:

    [c:myfile.csv]
    userid,newid
    "user01","newuser01"
    "user02,"newuser02"
    [end of file]

    import-csv users.csv |%{set-qaduser $_.userid -samaccountname $_.newid}
