Vista - Getting Powershell output into a sql table

As a Powershell newbie, i wanted to know if i can create a powershell app
that will search my list of SQL Server Instances (from a sql table) query
each one for the list of administrators of that server and then put that data
into a SQL table.

I finally found this function from Ron Dameron
(http://www.simple-talk.com/content/a...icle=576#forum) which
lists administrators of a server.

Then, i found RIchard Siddaway's example of how to use powershell to push
into a table.
http://richardsiddaway.spaces.live.c...entry?0aaed4f8 Now, it seems I'm not too far from solution!

Can anyone put this together for me to put the output of the function run
against a list of servers into another SQL Table?

If I had a solution to this, it will be my template for gathering all kinds
of useful info!
Thanks in advance!
