You set the initial value of the member by using the Value parameter. In the case of AliasProperty, ScriptProperty, CodeProperty and CodeMethod, you can supply additional information by using the SecondValue parameter.
The additional members are added to the particular instance of the object that you pipe to add-member or specify using the InputObject parameter. The additional member is only available while that instance exists. You can use the Export-Clixml cmdlet to save the instance, including the additional members, to a file. The information stored in that file can be used by the Import-Clixml cmdlet to recreate the instance of the object.
