    There's a new microsoft.public.windows.powershell group.

    Thanks I thought that this was visible on that site also. also if I move
    the [] brackets I get the following error.

    Unable to find type [System.DirectoryServices.SearchScope.subtree]: make sure
    hat the assembly containing this type is loaded.

    I'm not a DiretoryServices guy, but I think what you want is this:

    PS> [System.DirectoryServices.SearchScope]::Subtree

    Static methods/properties are called using "::" instead of "."
    Use this to see all static members:

    PS> [System.DirectoryServices.SearchScope] | get-member -static
