Don't know if you have seen this cmdlet but this should get you to the application association

$application = "Microsoft Word"

#set the document application assoication

Set-PWDocumentApplication -InputDocuments $docs -Application $application -Verbose

yep. that worked. Thank You!

added a "Global" search named "Microstation7"
Then accessed it: Get-PWDocumentsBySearch -SearchName "Microstation7"

Still looking for a way to change "Application"

Update-PWDocumentProperties - "allows you to reset the document name, description, file name or
version string"
Update-PWDOcumentAttributes - changes the "document attribute record" - which works for the custom attributes

...any Idea how you get to "Applicaton" or "Status"..etc.?

Thanks

How about setting up a saved search in the datasource, and then using the cmdlet to return the files via the saved search?
