problems with exchange 2010 shell

im trying to run a simple script to get a list of members in a exchange dynamic distribution group
im using rthe following code

Get-DistributionGroupMember -identity “group name” | Export-CSV C:\MyFile.Csv

but it keeps giving an error saying the object cannot be found
i have tried several groups and it cant find any
these groups do exist

here is the error

The operation couldn't be performed because object 'group name' couldn't be found on 'server.domain.com'.
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Get-DistributionGroupMember], ManagementObjectNotFoundException

Try:
Open Exchange Management Shell and run:

Set-ADServerSettings -ViewEntireForest $True
Get-DistributionGroupMember -identity “group name” | Export-CSV C:\MyFile.Csv
