Reading and running Powershell file from text

Right now, I'm trying to use a Powershell script to read through a text file and execute all of the Powershell scripts mentioned in it, but I can't get any results. I've tried specifying it this way:

Start-Job -ScriptBlock{powershell.exe -noexit $val} -name $jobnum

and this way:

Start-Job -ScriptBlock{$val}

($val is the value of the line of text) but it doesn't run the script that's written on that line.

And I've tried this way:

Start-Job -FilePath($val) -name $jobnum

But I get this error:

Start-Job : Only PowerShell script files are allowed for FilePath parameter. Specify a file with .ps1 extension.

Even though the value of $val is a legitimate path to a file with ps1 extension!

My text lines look like this: C:\Users\me\Desktop\notepad.ps1

How do I get my Powe开发者_C百科rshell script to read in text and run the ps1 scripts that have a path given in the text?

Concerning

Start-Job -ScriptBlock {powershell.exe -noexit $val} -name $jobnum

you need to specify -ArgumentList parameter like this:

Start-Job -ScriptBlock {param($v) .. your command using $v} -name $jobnum -argumentlist $val

Otherwise the $value is not known to the job.

Never mind, the problem was because I was doing -FilePath($val) instead of -FilePath $val.
