      foreach ($Member in $Arrayofmembers)
      {
          $Record."Group _ObjectGUID" = $Group
          $Record."Name" = $Member.name
          $Record."SamAccountName" = $Member.SamAccountName

  <p>I can't think of a way to trim this down to get around this because the solution of changing the config on all the domain controllers (300ish) is not an option.</p>
  
  <p>Anyone got any suggestions?</p>
