I am using this script, and in powershell, it pulls everything up fine.

get-adgroup -Filter * -property mail | fl SamAccountName, Mail, DistinguishedName

However, when I add this to the end

get-adgroup -Filter * -property mail | fl SamAccountName, Mail, DistinguishedName | Export-Csv c:\My Folder\ADGroup.csv

The excel sheet comes out with the following results.

#TYPE Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Internal.Format.FormatStartData
"ClassId2e4f51ef21dd47e99d3c952918aff9cd","pageHeaderEntry","pageFooterEntry","autosizeInfo","shapeInfo","groupingEntry"
"033ecb2bc07a4d43b5ef94ed5a35d280",,,,"Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Internal.Format.ListViewHeaderInfo",
"9e210fe47d09416682b841769c78b8a3",,,,,


These are the expected results


SamAccountName : example
Mail : email
DistinguishedName : Long name


Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
