Powershell does not recognize invoke-sqlcmd

I am unable to use invoke-sqlcmd in powershell. I've loaded the module written by Chad Miller as described here: Problems using SQL Server 2008 R2 PowerShell extensions outside of SQLPS

The module loads just fine without error, and using get-module shows sqlps as expected. However, using get-pssnapin does not show either SqlServerCmdletSnapin100 or SqlServerProviderSnapin100

When I type invoke-sqlcmd I get the error "The term 'invoke-sqlcmd' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program..."

Running Windows 7 Pro, have SQL Server Management Studio Express 2008R2, have installed SQL Server 2008R2 Management Objects.

Thanks for any help Jon

In my case, this issue was solved installing Microsoft® Windows PowerShell Extensions for Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 and Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Shared Management Objects both included in Microsoft® SQL Server® Feature Pack

I have similar problem:) This what i did: Register dll from sql files:

set-alias installutil $env:windir\microsoft.net\framework\v2.0.50727\installutil
installutil -i "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\Redist\Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.PSProvider.dll"
installutil -i "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\Redist\Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.PSSnapins.dll"

Then you can check by: get-PSSnapin -registered

and now add snapins:

Add-PSSnapin SqlServerCmdletSnapin100   
Add-PSSnapin SqlServerProviderSnapin100

That works for me. Hope it helps...

Sorry for my english:)
