Getting UIDNumbers out of AD users

I'm trying to get the UIDNumbers out of all my AD users and after that determining the highest UIDNumber with the following code

Get-ADUser -Filter * -property UIDNumber | Select-Object UIDNumber | measure -maximum

This results in the following:

Count : 1867
Average :
Sum :
Maximum :
Minimum :
Property :

Weird since i don't get the right value in "Maximum" a lot of values are empty as well fyi.

Since you are passing an object rather than a scalar into Measure-Object, you need to pick the property that you want to measure with the -Property parameter.

Get-ADUser -Filter "UIDNumber -like '*'" -Property UIDNumber |
    Measure-Object -Maximum -Property UIDNumber

Select-Object is not necessary since the Get-ADUser -Property UIDNumber returns objects that already contain UIDNumber. However, if you use the -ExpandProperty UIDNumber parameter of Select-Object, you do not need to specify -Property in Measure-Object.
