Hi Atula,

welcome to Powershell :)

To reduce the gap between displayed columns (which is not output, something you will keep stumbling over at the beginning) you can use to -AutoSize parameter:

dir | ft -AutoSize

Cheers,
Fred

There's no place like 127.0.0.1

Thanks Fred, 

for your help 

| FT -AutoSize worked for me
