TFS commands in PowerShell script

I have a Powershell script written in the version 1.0. In this existing old script I need the facility to get the latest code of a project from TFS. I have TFS client on the machine and that lets me use the TFS command line. I have created the TFS command line comments to get the latest from TFS. These commands run successfuly from the command propmt.

Now the I need to include these TFS commands in my old poweshell script. I need to know if this is doable? If yes then how.

Thanks.

One option is to run the TF.exe program with the necessary arguments from within your PowerShell script, as you would with any other executable:

PS> & "$env:ProgramFiles\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\TF.exe" @("workspace", "/new", "WS1", "/noprompt", "/login:foo,bar", "/collection:baz/tfs")

Or you could use the TFS PowerShell cmdlets included in the TFS Power Tools:

PS> Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.TeamFoundation.PowerShell 
PS> Get-TfsChangeset -Latest -Server "http://mytfsserver"
