Can you use the Microsoft ActiveDirectory module, or are you limited to the System.DirectoryServices classes?
Either way, there is a “whenCreated” property that you can filter on. You’ll probably need to set up your filter as a range from midnight-to-midnight, as that field appears to contain time data. For example:
# Simulating what is probably in your $dateTimePicker1.Text field. $textDate = '1/2/2014' $startDate = ([datetime]$textDate).Date $endDate = $startDate.AddDays(1) Get-ADComputer -Filter 'whenCreated -ge $startDate -and whenCreated -lt $endDate' -Properties whenCreated | Select-Object -Property SamAccountName,whenCreated
