I have a script that duplicates a Word doc template and renames each using a csv file with a list of names. What would be the equivalent code if instead of a csv file I use a text file?

Import-csv ‘.\individuals2.csv’ | foreach-object {
	$newname = ‘2 ‘ + $_.name + '.docx’
	Copy-item '.\template.docx' $newname
}

What's the format of the text file?

It's just a Notepad text file.

The confusion is that CSV is also just a Notepad text file that uses Commas to Separate Values.

They are asking about what kind of values are in it.

Just words? It's a list of names.
