PowerShell - Remove-CMContentDistribution

hi,

i try remove app, packages os etc. remote dps , using remove-cmcontentdistribution. using try , catch method, catch appending on testing if 1 of packages missing write package names in-line - example

package not @ site or had error removing: adobe flash player 22.0.0.209 test test1

i have tried -append text file , csv.

here script -

$packages = get-content "c:\scratch\psin\packages.txt"
$distrbutionname = "servername.com"

foreach($package in $packages)
{   try
{      remove-cmcontentdistribution -distributionpointname $distrbutionname -applicationname $packages -verbose -force
}
   catch {     
 "package not @ site or had error removing: $packages" | out-file "c:\scratch\psout\removepackage.txt" -append
       }

}

if  format , design code more , better able see mistakes:

$packages = get-content c:\scratch\psin\packages.txt $splat = @{ 	distributionpointname = 'servername.com' 	erroraction = 'stop'
        verbose = $true }  foreach($pkg in $packages){ 	try { 		remove-cmcontentdistribution -applicationname $pkg @splat         } 	catch { 		write-host "$_" 		"package not @ site or had error removing: $pkg" |  			out-file c:\scratch\psout\removepackage.txt -append 	} }

you try/cstch block missing closure.  code formatting have made obvious.
