powershell find ms word files through keywords - powershell

Question

I have made a script that should return a specific word document.
It searches for a keyword in the document to find the right file. It finds the file, but also a lot of other files that does not contain the keyword, but it says it does contain the keyword
What am I doing wrong please.

Thank you for helping me.
Your script works better than mine, but it also finds files that does not contain the keyword and says it contains the keyword in this line Write-Host -f Cyan "$doc contains the Keyword: '$keyword1'".
It even finds files where it says of the same file "$doc contains the Keyword: '$keyword1'" and "$doc does not contain the Keyword: '$keyword1'".

When i run your script it works perfectly. I can't find the problem. Could you try my script. There are no major changes but maybe this will work for you:
add-type -AssemblyName "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word"
#Folder om mee verbinding te maken
$SourceFolder = "c:\temp"
cd $SourceFolder
#Keywords waarop gezocht moet worden
$keyword1 = "25189"
$Forward = $true
$MatchWholeWord = $true
$Word = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application
$docs = Get-ChildItem -Path $SourceFolder -Include #("*.doc", "*.docx") -Recurse
foreach ($doc in $docs)
{
$condition1 = $Word.Documents.Open($doc.FullName).Content.Find.Execute($keyword1,$Forward,$MatchWholeWord)
switch($condition1)
{
$true
{
#$word.Application.ActiveDocument.Close()
Write-Host -f Cyan "$doc contains the Keyword: '$keyword1'"
#Move-Item -Path $doc.FullName -Destination $destination
$word.Application.ActiveDocument.Close()
}
$false
{
$word.Application.ActiveDocument.Close()
Write-Host -f Red "$doc does not contains the Keyword: $keyword1"
}
}
Write-Host "Filename '$($doc.Fullname)"
Write-Host "`r"
}
Stop-Process -Name "WINWORD"
