I don't code in VB, but your LDAP directory search filter needs to be "(objectcategory=group)", right now it contains a 'memberof' clause that does not belong there. Use "objectcategory=*" to see everything for testing.
Hey so I changed the code to pull up all groups in an OU HERE IT IS
I also have a function that tries to grab all the groups for a given member
here is code

Private Sub FillDropdown()
Dim oroot As DirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://OU=Groups Application,OU=Unified Data Centers,DC=one,DC=ads,DC=che,DC=org")
Dim osearcher As DirectorySearcher = New DirectorySearcher(oroot)
Dim oresult As SearchResultCollection
Dim result As SearchResult
Dim list As New List(Of String)
osearcher.Filter = "(objectCategory=group)"
' search filter; only display emp with firstname / lastname pair
osearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("memberof") ' member
oresult = osearcher.FindAll()
For Each result In oresult
If Not result.GetDirectoryEntry.Properties("group").Value Is Nothing Then
list.Add(result.GetDirectoryEntry.Properties("member").Value.ToString())
Call list.Sort()
End If
Next
' LVGlobal.subitems.add
ListBox1.Items.Add(list)
End Sub

If your intent is to get the names of the groups in the OU, I don't know why you are referencing 'memberof' and 'member' as those attributes have nothing to do with the name of the group. You should simplify the code loop to show the names by just showing the name of the group, ie:
list.Add(result.GetDirecto
Here is essentially the same thing you are trying to do (assuming I understand what you want to do):
