Output text to a text box....

[Diener]

Before someone suggests it, I have already read the following link: https://www.sapien.com/blog/2014/12/15/ ... tion-copy/

My confusion is this... how do I get the output of my button press (which runs a simple function) to actually output into my textbox? Here's my script that I'm using to test out functionality of Studio. I have the $textboxresults.text = blah blah blah but that doesn't seem to do anything at all....

$form1_Load={
#TODO: Initialize Form Controls here
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
}

$buttonGetUser_Click= {
#TODO: Place custom script here
$GetUser = Get-User
$textboxResults.text = $GetUser

Function Get-User
{
[CmdLetBinding()]
Param ([Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
[System.String]$user)
Get-Aduser -filter "Name -like '$user*'"
}

Get-User
}


$textbox1_TextChanged={
#TODO: Place custom script here

}

PowerShell returns objects. A textbox only display strings.

$textbox1.Text = Get-Aduser -filter "Name -like '$user*'" | select -expand name

So how do I have this trigger from a button click? And can I just define a function and have the code like...

$textbox1.Text = Get-User where Get-User is my function defined earlier in the script?

Why would you use a function for two lines of code. A button click event is a function.

Just place the code in the button click block.
