 $resultsarray =@()
 foreach ($user in $output)
 {
 $contactlist = “”
$contactObject = new-object PSObject
 $sipaddress=$user.userathost
 $user_contacts=$user.contacts.contact
 # Here we search the contact list and add the contacts to a new variable, separating each with a comma

foreach($buddy in $user_contacts)
 {$contactlist = $contactlist + $buddy.buddy+”,”}
 # Here we now add the users information to the CSV file, we’re just adding their sip address and contacts in this process
 $contactObject | add-member -membertype NoteProperty -name “SIP Address” -Value $sipaddress
 $contactObject | add-member -membertype NoteProperty -name “Contacts” -Value $contactlist
 $resultsarray += $contactObject
