Vista - Using switches in powershell to go to a specific location

I seem to recall that you can set up a powershell script to accept a command
line parameter that would allow you to skip to a certain location in the
script, but i can't for the life of me recall what it was. It seemed to be
related to $Status.

Hi GreatBarrier,
I'm not 100% certain what you're asking, but this may help:

param( [string] $switch = "Red")
switch -regex ($switch){
"red" {write-host "Red"}
"blue" {write-host "Blue"}
Default {write-host "Green"}
}

Examples:
PS C:\Toolbox\Scripts> test-switch Red
Red
PS C:\Toolbox\Scripts> test-switch green
Green
PS C:\Toolbox\Scripts> test-switch white
Green
PS C:\Toolbox\Scripts> test-switch blue
Blue
PS C:\Toolbox\Scripts> test-switch
Red

something like this:

param([switch]$AfterReboot)

if (!$AfterReboot) {
do stuff
do more stuff
put a call to this script with -AfterReboot parameter in the RunOnce reg
key
invoke reboot
}
else {
do post reboot stuff here.
}
