title: Splitting a web.config connection string
body: <p>I just started on Powershell and I am trying to split a connection string that is saved as a string. I have attempted regex and array splits but since I am learning I wanted to ask you folks for an entry level idea.</p>
  
  <p>Below is a connection string example I am trying to split with each of the key areas being assigned to a variable. </p>
  
  <pre><code>@{connectionString=Data Source=database;Initial Catalog=catalog;User ID=userid;Password=password}
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I would ideally like each of the values made available to a variable.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for reading.</p>
