Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

# This example demonstrates getting the SERIALNUMBER part of the subject,

# Not too many certicates include the serial number in the Subject.

$serialNum = $cert.GetSubjectPart("SERIALNUMBER")
if ($cert.LastMethodSuccess -eq $false) {
    $("No SERIALNUMBER part exists.")

# We could also get the part by the OID.
# See https://oidref.com/2.5.4.5 for a list of OID's in the 2.5.4.* range..
# The OID for SERIALNUMBER is "2.5.4.5"
$serialNum = $cert.GetSubjectPart("2.5.4.5")
