Vista - string.format() ???

is there a way to get to string.format?

I notice when I do a get-member it isn't exposed.

Static methods require the '::' operator instead of:

PS (52) > [string]::format("Hi {0}", "there")
Hi there

You may also want to look at the format operator -f which is effectively
short-hand for String.Format:

PS (53) > "Hello {0}, today is {1}" -f "there",(get-date)
Hello there, today is 5/19/2006 10:16:03 PM
