I’m a beginner to Powershell and CLI in general, but this task does not need to use either so I’m open to using other tools.

I’m trying to do the following:

  1. Create multiple files from a Word template.
  2. Rename each file based on a list of names found in an Excel/CSV sheet.

Thanks in advance!

    You should be able to use COM interoperability , specifically the OpenAsDocument() and Save() methods. You can also use COM interoperability to read from Excel, but using ImprtFrom-CSV would be much easier. Then you just iterate over the file names, and for each one open the template as a document, then save it as the filename.
