You can use either -LDAPFilter or -Filter. Both would work but have different syntax. For simple searches I recommend LDAPFilter.

Example $user = Get-ADUser -LDAPFilter "(DisplayName=*Neemo*)" [Variables are supported in the filter strings]
With a filter you may return multiple users, so you will need some logic to deal with those situations such as a selection box

I don’t see the new code so can only guess that the syntax is incorrect or no results were returned based on the filter hence the error the other command is returning.

As Neemo says, $User is likely empty. If you are actually using

$user = Get-ADUser -LDAPFilter “(DisplayName=Neemo)”

as you state, that would mean that it needs to be an exact match and I do believe that Mr. Neemo used that as an example … might want to use WildCards as Neemo suggested.
