You might use :

$s6="$s1$s2$s3$s4$s5"

Write-Host "result is $s6"

  • For displaying purpose it is working but I want the entire result in a string variable..which is not working.Can you please check it once and revert to me. – chaitanya chaitanya Apr 03 '15 at 07:20
  • @Chaitanya chaitanya your are wrong $s6 is a string var. This is the good answer or I don't understand your question ? – JPBlanc Apr 03 '15 at 07:28

You can literally "join" your strings with the -join operator:

$s6 = $s1,$s2,$s3,$s4,$s5 -join ""

Or, without specifying a delimiter:

$s6 = -join @($s1,$s2,$s3,$s4,$s5)
