Upgrade Windows Server 2003 scheduled tasks to Windows Server 2008 using PowerShell

FYI - this is my first time using Powershell so go easy on me...

We upgraded our ETL box from WS 2003 to 2008. Win Server 2008's scheduled task system is completely revamped (meaning you can't just drag tasks over).

I wrote this little script to:

1. Read all the tasks into a CSV 
2. Loop thru each task, replace a executable path (due to install differences) and output to the new XML format for WS 2008.
3. *Optional - actually import the tasks using the 'CREATE' command of schtasks
