Script giving weird output

PowerShell Help

I have a script to list all AD OUs but for some reason the foreach is giving output of an integer of each OU

I run it and it outputs for example if there is 10 OUs

$objForm = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Form 
$objForm.Text = "Select an OU"

$objListBox.Location = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(10,40) 
$objListBox.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(460,20) 
$objListBox.Height = 80

$OUlist = (Get-ADOrganizationalUnit -Filter *)

ForEach ($OU in $OUlist)
{$objListBox.Items.Add($OU.DistinguishedName)}

$objForm.Controls.Add($objListBox) 

$objForm.Topmost = $True

$objForm.Add_Shown({$objForm.Activate()})
[void] $objForm.ShowDialog()

$NewOU = $objListBox.SelectedItem
$NewOU

Thanks

SelectedItem is an integer, referring to the index of the item which is selected. If you’re after the OU name, you may want to try SelectedText or something instead. Read through the docs on that ListBox control.

It give the OU name as well when i select it in the list box and click OK. Also if i comment out the last two lines it still lists the numbers, just not the OU obviously

it have been fixed!

[Void] was needed in the foreach

ForEach ($OU in $OUlist)
{[Void]$objListBox.Items.Add($OU.DistinguishedName)}
