This is what I get for going to a Powershell class.....

So I went to a powershell class last week and now I'm trying to put to use some of what I learned last week. 

I am trying to use the param feature and the first step is to start with a working command, which I have.

Get-ADComputer -Filter {description -like "*kelly*"} -Properties name,description,operatingsystem | select name,description,operatingsystem | Format-Table -AutoSize 

Produces this on the screen:

name     description                                   operatingsystem       

----     -----------                                   ---------------       

DMV22564 DMV - Cashiers - Kelly Lawrence               Windows 7 Professional

ADM23169 ADM - Information Technology - Kevin Kelly    Windows 7 Professional

PDD23113 PDD - Roadway Traffic & Safety - Joseph Kelly Windows 7 Professional

 

But when I use the script below I don't get any Output to the screen.  I am prompted to enter the description but after I do that and run the script nothing shows up on the screen. 

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Andy
